can i hide 'all programs' from start menu?

[- T00LF00L -]

is there a way to hide the 'all programs' start menu item for one particular
user? i would rather be able to do this than have to move all the icons
from the 'all users' list and putting them in the individual users i want to
have access. thanks for any help!

Hi,
This edit from Kelly's page might help you:

Hi,

It is a per user setting:

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explor
er]
"NoStartMenuMorePrograms"=dword:00000001
