Hey guys, I have an interesting problem. IN my start menu programs folder, there is another folder called "programs" which appears to redirect to the main start menu programs folder. There is no folder named "programs" in either the start menu...

I've just upgraded to Vista, and on the whole its very nice, i don't like the fact there is no "up" button on the file explorer but i that's no big deal ^^

However, i really don't like the new start menu, i much prefer the old cascading style menu, is there any way i can change it? (Without using the ugly "Classic Start Menu" option)

What do you guys think of the new system?

And does anyone know WHY they changed it?

Cheers

I have noticed on occasion that shortcuts i have pinned to the start menu lose their affiliation with the directory.....for example one shortcut is normally the Number 2 for BF2, one day i look and it is now a blank wite pice of paper looking this and can not find the exe....does anyone know what could be causing this

vista home premium 64 bit...thanks

eh, hey,

i would like to change the button on the start menu so that i can switch the computer off, as aposed to chossing to switch it off via the menu

how do i do this, i know its possible as i have read it somewhere but, cant remember how to do it,

thanks for the replies guys !! =]

I put my PC to sleep as I went to work Thursday morning. When I got home to wake it up, a blue screen with white fonts all over it saying crazy things, one of them being of course Error. I rebooted, and everything seemed back to normal - except the start menu. It's missing that upper divider-line and all whatever icons I had in there were gone. Well, when I started using certain programs, the icons of those programs entered in the start menu, but whatever else was in there before never came back. Here's a link to what I mean by the divider-line toward the top of the start menu...
