| vista ultimate | Re: Start Menu - Pin Folder To Thank you for this post. I have used both the download and inputted the registry edit in the manual way. However, neither works. When I hold shift and right click, the pin to start menu item does not appear. Any suggestions or troubleshooting ideas? Thanks!! |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Start Menu - Pin Folder To Hi MAD50, and welcome to Vista Forums. It will not work on the folders or items that are in the Start menu All Programs, only from a folder in Windows Explorer. Is this what you were trying it on? Shawn |

| vista ultimate | Re: Start Menu - Pin Folder To Thanks for your prompt response. Yes, all I am doing is navigating in explorer to a regular old folder and Shift, Right Clicking and the option does not come up. Not sure if it matters, I am using Vista Ultimate |

| Vista x64 Ultimate SP2, Windows 7 Ultimate x64 | Re: Start Menu - Pin Folder To Try using the Add Pin Folder download option again and merge it. It seems to be working fine for me. You may also need to close and reopen any Windows Explorer windows if you had them open when did the reg file merge. If that still does not help, then try logging off and on to see if it will work afterwards. Hope this helps, Shawn |

| vista ultimate 32bit | Re: Start Menu - Pin Folder To what did work for me (I think mine was complicated as I needed a pinned shortcut to a folder on a mapped network drive) make desktop shortcut to C:\ right click, pin to start menu right-click new pinned shortcut (note: on start menu), rename right-click again, edit, make it a shortcut to wherever, enter profit appreciate the tip anyway and thanks for the new site to kill time on ![]() Ethan |
