How do you refresh the Start Menu without restarting the SPV

[Guest mdawkins]

Can someone please tell me how you can refresh the Start Menu when copying new shortcuts into it without turning the SPV off and on again.

Thanks

Martin.

Go into a higher level folder than the current one (eg Games if you're in programs) and then press back. ;)

Don't copy new shortcuts into /IPSM/Windows/Start Menu. Instead, copy them into a subdirectory of there, and they usually appear straight away.

Alternatively, if you have a Task Manager application, kill the process "Programs".

This is a little bit tricky.

Sometimes they are there immediately, especially if you put them in one of your subfolders like games, accessories etc.

If you put in default start menu try and wait a bit or maybe run a program. Give the phone a chance to refresh by it self.

Works for me...

Folder trick always does it for me!

PS: It's not higher level folder, but a lower-level, subfolder... No big deal, move along....

I go into Task Manager and shuts down 'programs' (and everthing else *hehe*) .. and the Start Menu appears to be refreshed...

Everything else except tray he means.... but you learn that pretty quick anyway ;)

[Guest MoRFLeZ]

Yeah my bad, what I meant was I close down 'programs' via Task Manager (which seems to refresh the Start Menu next time I open it)! And while I'm at it .. I quit all non sys. apps.
