• How to search for "Mail (32-bit)" (Control Panel) on the Start Menu?

  I would like to be able to hit the Start button and type Mail and then be able to open the Control Panel item «Mail (32-bit)»

  Now when I click on start and type Mail I only search for items in the downloads section, but Panel does not appear. When I open the control panel and tap "Mail", I see the article of mail (32 bit).
  Thank you!

  As an alternative, go to Control Panel , and then change the view by [in the top right] the categories large icons or small iconsview.

  In doing so, the entry of mail will always appear when you open the Control Panel in the future.

  You can, if you wish, just right-click on the mail entry & select Create shortcut.  This is put on your desktop, but you can then move it somewhere else more convenient for you.

• How to get removed from the start menu programs?

  Hello

  I stupidly deleted my file of all programs on the start menu (by chance).
  He emptied the folder programs on the start menu through Explorer windows as well.

  I still have access to all of my programs seeking for them or through the program files. How can I rebuild my Start menu to the original WITHOUT reinstalling windows or something like that.

  Unfortunately, I can't do a restore because it is configured to do a clean up of all old restore points, and he did it about 5 minutes before the problem occurred.

  PLEASE HELP ME!

• Impossible to display the items in the start menu

  Home Premium SP2, IE8. Dell laptop.

  I must have tried mistakenly and unknowingly add an element in the Menu start (one on the right).
  Now, if I click on the Start button, I have a message saying that some elements of the Start Menu may not be displayed, and that I should change to a higher resolution.
  Here I am on the highest resolution 1280 x 800 pixels
  Color is set to 32-bit.
  Screen refresh rate is set to 60 Hertz.

  System Restore is out of the question that I had made a diskcleanup and deleted all the points except the one under restoration.
  I can't figure out what I wanted to add to the Start Menu.
  Anyway to find out?

  t-4-2

  I almost checked everything and I do not get this message (but I'm at 1920 x 1200 pixels).  The thing is, you have probably really all these elements if account required to limiting the size, you'll just need to identify the items you really need/want and uncheck the others until the message disappears.  Most of these items can be added as shortcuts to the office or the menu all programs for options is a click on Show desktop and clicking on the option instead of a click on start and click on the option (even two clicks so be it - more if you put the shortcuts in all programs rather than on the desktop).  If you are having problems, create the appropriate shortcuts, just post back exactly what are the options that you want as shortcuts and we will see if we can help you (if you still need that).

  As much as what option you want to add, I have no idea and no way of knowing.  You must include only what you actually use frequently.  Don't forget, there are other ways to do all these options, even if they are not in the Start Menu, you can still get where you want to go (just may take a little longer).

  The only other choice is to upgrade your video card so that it supports a higher resolution (assuming one is available that is compatible with the rest of your computer and its devices - in particular, the monitor and motherboard - and also compatible with your version of Vista).  But this seems a high price to pay just to be able to see a few buttons in the Start Menu.

  I hope this helps.

  Good luck!

  How can I remove windows box office and upcoming facebook in the start menu

  I moved your question answers feedback to Windows desktop and personalization areas.

  You care to offer up what version of Windows, you are talking about but if it's Windows 7, I would right-click on the offending list and either:

  1. Remove from this list , is that the entry is in the most recent lower part / area most often used.
  2. Delete the Start Menu if the entry is pinned in the Start Menu (above the most recent / most often used).

  Restart the computer and start typing the key F8, select Safe mode with command option.

At the command prompt, type % systemroot%\system32\restore\rstrui.exe, and then press ENTER. Follow the prompts to restore your computer to an earlier date.

• How to 'show' a choice of program menu in the Start Menu?

  When Start menu > programs and then maybe digging through another couple of submenus to load a program, is there a way I can pin as the end point directly in my Start Menu?  I know you can do this in Windows 7.  (If not, what is the best way to do it?)

  Yes you can right-click the point, and the PIN in the Start Menu.

• I have a shortcut on my desktop that I want to add to the start menu. How can I do this?

  The program is listed in "all programs" but do a right click on it does not give the "pin to start menu" option as it does for programs that was shipped with Windows 7. (Please do not suggest that I drag it from the office to the menu start, in the start menu closes as soon as you click on anything, which makes it impossible.).

  Too bad.  I just tried something and it worked.  I did drag the icon on the button start not open and here!, he was pinned to the menu.  So, I answer to my own question.

• How to get all the programs in the Start Menu is displayed as a cascading menu

  Is there a legitimate way to get the menu all programs in the Windows 7 Start Menu to display a menu cascading (WinXP style)?

  I've seen many references to various malicious programs to download from the internet who hack into the start menu to provide this functionality, but I'm not interested in executing random programs from the internet.

  If there is no legitimate way to do this in Windows 7 right now, is it possible to add this in the future Microsoft? The current implementation of menu "scroll of the trees" is really annoying. :-(

  Hi Ghaz78

  There is unfortunately no way to do this without using a replacement of the third party.

  One of the most popular workarounds must simply turn on the Quick Launch bar. You can put the toolbar QL next to the Start Menu and then copy the folder of programs (all programs) on this toolbar that will give you the cascading effect.

  See the post below for the steps to add the QL toolbar.

  Bar to complete tasks

  Once this done, go to Start, then right-click all programs , and then selectopen all users. This will take you to the folder C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start start\program . This is the location where the shortcuts that appear in all the user accounts, theall programs folder.

  Copy this folder in: C:\Users\your name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

  Go toStart, all programs right click and select Open. This will take you to the
  Record of C:\Users\your start\program name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start.
  This is the folder where shortcuts that appear only in the all programs to your specific user account folder is located.

  Copy this folder in:C:\Users\your name\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch

  Quite.

  I hope this helps.

  Thank you for using Windows 7

  The best place to ask would be the forums for answers corresponding to your version of Windows.

  =====================

  If you have Windows 7 with Aero - click with the right button on the taskbar at the bottom of the screen and click on 'show windows '.
  Side by Side.

  For all versions of Windows:

  You could also reduce less than full screen using the small box to the left of the red X at the top right
  and then resizing windows as you want.

  I hope this helps.
