Solve : XP Pro Start Menu - too many columns - can't see everything!?

1.	Solve : XP Pro Start Menu - too many columns - can't see everything!?
Answer» When I get my Start Button list of programs, I have 3 columns of program and I think there are more that are off the screen. How do I see everything in the list, or shrink the columns to MAKE room for more? FrogYou can right click the bar next to start (That blue bar I forgot it's name xD ) and click properties, go to start menu tab, choose start menu, then customize, make it small ICONS, hope this helps Edit Nevermind this doesn't help with your problem Quote from: Enzan on March 19, 2008, 03:59:37 AM You can right click the bar next to start (That blue bar I forgot it's name xD ) The Taskbar Try grouping similar programs together - i.e. all video related, or all media related - just change the name of one folder and then drag all the other related ones into that. I can't stand a sprawling start menu, plus it takes longer to load - mine has MAYBE 8 items (FOLDERS) on it - with each one branching out quite a bit... Hey thanks for all the INPUT - I'm going to do the folders right now as that sure will make life easier. I guess this Newbie / Dummy never thought about doing that. D U H ! So my problem is solved. Thanks again to all, Frog
