Startup - All Programs - Can't see all programs

S

Sam Saitta

I have a large number of programs installed on my computer. There are so
many that when I go to Start and then All Programs, I can't see all of the
programs. Any ideas how I can either arrange the items to see them all? Is
using subfolders for the programs effective? If so, are there any other
considerations that could cause difficulty in later uninstalling the
program?

the list should expand when you click on the two little black '\/'
looking icons at the bottom of the list. if you move them to
subfolders the programs will uninstall correctly.

Answered in another newsgroup. Please do not send the same message
separately to more than one newsgroup (called multiposting). Doing so just
fragments the thread, so someone who answers in one newsgroup doesn't get to
see answers from others in another newsgroup. And for those who read all the
newsgroups the message is multiposted to, they see the message multiple
times instead of once (they would see it only once if you correctly
crossposted instead). This wastes everyone's time, and gets you poorer help
than you should get.

If you must send the same message to more than one newsgroup, please do so
by crossposting (but only to a *few* related newsgroups).

Please see "What is the accepted way to share a message across multiple
newsgroups?" at http://smjg.port5.com/faqs/usenet/xpost.html

Thank you for the response. I do not see two Vs. My programs are listed
all the way to the bottom right hand side of my screen when I click All
Programs but I know there are more..

Sam, you can get scrolling programs list by Right clicking on the Start
button, go down to properties, click on Advanced tab, the customize tab.
Scroll 3/4 or so of the way down
and click on scroll programs, then apply and OK. This will put the down
arrow at the bottom that will allow you to scroll.
