Thats how it appears on the registry on these machines John - that doesnt work.

I meant to put a ? at the end of the previous post, did that not work then?

I'm about 99% sure it's just a typo you've made on here while posting but there is a 2 in that script after start menu on the off chance you've not noticed

I've got a script:

reg delete "HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Start Menu2" /f /va

:(

A script to do http://www.theeldergeek.com/sort_start_menu_alphabetically.htm

Aaron,

Got it to stop hiding stuff but the menu still isnt in ABC order? :mad:

Thank you very much mate, i'll look into it when I go back to work

Ah...SBS, ours are 2003 Standard Edition Servers.

There's a policy in the User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Start Menu and Taskbars which says "Turn off personalised menus"

I'm looking at ours right now...

Yeah SBS2003 and XPP clients.

I'll look in the default policy when I'm back at work,must have just missed it :lol:

You can turn off personalised (sp) menu's in a default policy :boggle:

2003 server right? and XP client?

Anyone have any other ideas?

Found out how to order the start menu using the registry :)

I need your help s'il vous plait

I need to stop my Start Menus from doing this:

-Getting out of ABC order
-Shrinking so ypu have to press those two arrows to make the rest appear.

How do I do this in AD/GPO so that all the PC's in the school will be organised?

Thanks :wave:
