Start > Programs menu too large...
One one of my test machines, I install software left and right until I re-install the OS...
Well at the current moment I have a few hundred programs installed and they all do not fit onto the screen when I access Start > Programs;
I remember Win98 or so had a scrollable Programs menu... not the best solution, but an idea...
update: I edited:
Key:[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Sof tware\Micr osoft\Wind ows\Curren tVersion\E xplorer\Ad vanced]
Value Name: StartMenuScrollPrograms
Data Type: REG_SZ
Data:YES or NO
to YES
Works OK, but not the best solution and I guess there is no other? Just imagine siting there waiting for it to scroll past hundreds of programs...
What are my options?
Thank you...
