My Start Menu used to order the programs by installation, but now it's all
alphabetized. How does one revert to the install sequence order?

Thanks!
 
Hi,

The shortcuts in the Startmenu are saved in c:\Documents and
Settings\<username>\Start Menu folder.

By default, the last installed application will be placed in the bottom. If
you have manually sorted the shortcuts in the Start Menu, there has no way
to change it back.

Thanks for using Microsoft News Group!

Actually, I've never manually changed the sort order. How does one do that
in the 1st place? And if done, is there no reg hack to change it back?

Thanks,
Mark
