Regestry Question, WinXP - Location of Start Menu Default

T

Tecknomage

From doing OEM PK2 installs of WinXP I noted that the default folder
for the [Start] menu can be changed (it's one of the options).

The normal default for the [Start] menu = \Start Menu\Programs

So where in the WinXP Registry is this *default* locate?


I also note the same applies to the program folder default =
C:\Program Files

Where is this default located in the Registry?

User Shell Folders (and Shell Folders for support for antiquated software).
