Hi,

Right click the taskbar, choose properties. On the Start Menu tab, click
"customize". Enable the personalized menus option to get the condensed menus
you are seeking.

My start up menus no longer condense to a short list of only the most
recently used (I use the Classic Windows Startup format). How can I get
them to do that again?

Also, whenI go "Start" - "Documents" the list has My Documents and My
Pictiures at the top. How do I make it so these 2 items no longer appear?

Thank you for your reply, but this didn't work. I am using Classic Windows
theme and have the Personalized Menus option activated.

Anyone one esle have any other ideas?

Happy New Year.

On that same place where you get Personalized Menus there's "Scroll Menus"or
was it "Scroll Programs"?? Check that..
