Each user can customize their own Start menu, but an administrator user can
customize everyone's Start menus with one command. For example, you might want
to add a command to display a program that everyone in your workgroup will use,
or a shortcut to a shared folder. Here's how:

1. Right-click the Start button and choose Open All Users from the menu that
appears. You see the Start Menu window, which is an Explorer window displaying
the files that make up the default Start menu for all user accounts. These files
are usually stored in C:\Documents And Settings\All Users\Start Menu (if Windows
is installed on C.

2. If you want the command to appear in everyone's All Programs menu, open the
Programs folder. Otherwise, stay in the Start Menu folder to create a command
that appears on everyone's Start menu.

3. Choose File | New | Shortcut to run the Create Shortcut Wizard.

4. Following the Wizard's prompts, create a shortcut to the program, folder, or
file that you want on everyone's Start menu.

The shortcut you create appears on each user's Start or All Programs menu the
next time each person logs on. You can use the Start Menu window to move or
delete shortcuts for all users, too.
