Scrolling Start Menu Programs

If you have numerous programs installed, they may not all fit in one column on your Start Menu. By default, the programs will be displayed as horizontal columns. You can change this by editing the Advanced properties for the Start Menu, or you can have programs displayed in one long scrolling menu. Programs you don’t see on the scrolling menu are accessible by clicking the arrow at the bottom of the list.

To do so, right click the Start button and click Properties. From the Taskbar and Start Menu Properties dialog box, click the Advanced button. If you are using the Classic Start menu, scroll through the list of Advanced Start menu options and place a check beside Scroll Programs. If you are using the Start menu style, click the Advanced tab from the Customize Start Menu window. Scroll through the Start menu items and place a check beside Scroll Programs. Click OK.
