Can anyone tell me how to re-order the items on my Start menu?

I have installed PowerCalendar, PowerTasks, SmartphoneNotes and SmartphoneFind (all of which seem excellent to me) and I would like to have those four programs on the first page of my Start menu.

I have used the Explore bit in ActiveSync to find the "Storage - Windows - Start Menu" folder, but I cannot see what actually does the ordering of the shortcuts on the menu.

Thanks for the help.

I should know the answer but I just used Jeyo Personalizer which makes it easy. Either download a copy yourself or wait untol someone tells you the "proper" answer.

Good luck.

...I also use jeyo personaliser (it's free by the way)...works great but it only lets you re-order the first 7 items on the start menu...the rest are then put in alphabetical order...

Here you go one of midnights tweaks

You will need the PHM Regedit app, go to the following location,

HKCUSoftwareMicrosoftShellStartMenu

Select Values then highlight and click on Order

You will now see a list of the contents of the Start you can change the order

You will need to restart your phone for the changes to take effect.

EDIT

:oops: spent soo long playing and watching tv while writing this I was beaten to the solution :oops:

Thanks for all the replies guys.

I'll try Jeyo first as the reg stuff looks a bit scary to me!

i do it the easy way as documented above,

i was wondering if the number within the shorcut file has anything to do with it, for example '48#"Storage CardProgram Files EXEswatermanWaterMan.exe"' is a shorcut but what is the 48 used for?

Hey can you guys give me an example of how to do this, I have the regedit progrm, I can get to the file where you're talking about. But it too only lists the first 7 programs, how can i order the rest of them? Can i just make a new folder and move them there?
