Programs List

[bill]

I have a problem/question about the Programs list in the Start menu.
Not all my programs are listed even when the list is
expanded......some are missing from the alphabetical list
Is there a limit on how many programs XP will show?
If not, how can I make all my programs visible? thanks

Right click Start button
Select Explore and/or Explore All Users.
Then open the Programs folder.
Create new subfolders then rearrange shortcuts.
OR
You can also configure your programs list to scroll which results in one large
column.
Right-click the Start button
Go to Properties
Click the Customize button.
Click the Advanced tab.
Scroll through the list until you see the item "Scroll Programs".
Check that and hit OK.

Not all installed programs (other than the OS itself) place shortcuts
in the Start Menu. Some programs like Getright ask you at the time of
installation whether you want shortcuts in the Start Menu. You can
always add shortcuts to Start menu by first rightclicking on Start then
going on to
properties > customise > Add...
