Till Windows XP, I could right click and delete some obsolete or
unnecessary start menu items (in All Programs) without having the
start menu gets closed. This was useful because in many cases I need
to delete multiple items.

However, on Windows Vista, the start menu gets closed after deleting
one item. I need to click the Windows orb again, and click All
Programs again. Why has Microsoft changed the way the start menu works?
 
Open the start menu folder, and you can ctrl-click then delete a set.
Rightclick Start orb, then "Explore"
