All+Programs++is+it+cluttered+?


 * All Programs is it cluttered ? **

When you click **//Start//** and hover over **//All Programs//** to open them, do you groan and say where is it, ( The program you are looking for ) ?

Well you can organize **//All Programs//** and create **//folders//** within that section i.e. **//Office, Media, Zip Prgs, Oddities//**, etc.

Here is how :-

Right click the **//Start//** button Select **//Explore//** In **//"Documents & Settings//**" highlight "**//Start Menu//**" in all users ( If you do not have others on your PC just ignore All users ) Right click in **//Right-Hand Window//** Create a **//New Folder//** Call the new folder **//"Office"//** ( Or whatever ) Now at the top section of **//All Program//**s there is added a folder called **//Office//**

To add other folders follow the above procedure and Name them accordingly

Now for the tedious bit ( But remember once it has been completed the end result justifies the effort. )

Leave the **//Explorer window open//** Click **//Start//** Hover over **//All Programs.//**

Now begin by dragging the icons and folders into the appropriate new folder e.g. **//Media Programs//** into **//Media folder//** etc. ( I know it is a pain because the **//All Programs//** drops out on every drag, but persevere. )

You will end up with a very condensed **//All Programs//** Which eliminates scrolling through a long list of icons and folders to get to a particular icon or folder?


 * Tip:-**

When dragging from **//All Programs//** it is easier to move the **//New Folder//** in **//Explorer//** to the **//Right-Hand Edge//** of the window, this enables you to drop the Icon etc. easily into the folder. So move each, and every new folder to that position as you are collecting the programs for that section.

When you have done you will not believe the difference so much easier and also so easy to edit if wished.
