windows 7 programmes

G_M

Anyone know if there's a way to show the programmes under 'Start' in a preferred order? Or are they fixed alphabetically?

Mine are not fixed alphabetically

You can drag and drop , the icons.

Hi, right on the Windows Logo(start button whatever) properties brings up Customise(ze) start menu and untick sort by name, i'm trying to read this but it keeps closing when i type here

Tried that already. When dragging, a red circle with a line through appears (prohibited action) and wherever you release the icon it jumps back to original position. Seems to be locked somehow. Windows XP wasn't like this.

Start Menu>>Control Panel>>Taskbar and Start Menu option.

If you click the start Menu tab on the window that pops up you can customise how the links,icons and menus look and behave so I would imagine you can do it there.

Thanks. Easy when you know how!

If you want to return to an XP type menu, I tried Classic Shell it was better than expected and surprisingly, I've stuck with it.
