| | Start Menu Shortcuts Ok... So i'd like to organize my start menu a bit. I located the start menu programs dir under AppData in the user account. Problem is, these shortcuts are installed progs and such like previous versions. What i'm looking for is the shortcut location for the default progs such as "Windows Marketplace" and "Windows Collaberation" so that I may move 'em to their own dir. Naturally, that sort of thing isn't under the "Default" user dir. I do realize that I can make a dir under *my* user and drag 'em over, but it would be nice to find where they live to make the process easier in the future. Any info would be greatly appreciated. TIA - Robin Halbert |
