Enable Classic Startmenu WITH SMALL ICONS
Hi,
I've found the wat to add /modify the right registry key to get the startmenu to run in classic mode (for an unattended installation). But I've so far not found a way to make the classic startmenu run with SMALL ICONS. Does anyone know how to do that? Regards, Roland

Re: Enable Classic Startmenu WITH SMALL ICONS
Hi,
That's from a KIX-script I assume. I've seen it, tried it, and it works as a script, but so far I wasn't able to solve the puzzle that script does. Something to work on I guess ;-) I will continue, thx for the reply.

Re: Enable Classic Startmenu WITH SMALL ICONS
Roland,
MS, for some unknown reason, has basically hidden this info for the Classic Start Menu. Copy the HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\ Explorer\Advanced key from a system that you already have set up the way you want. Then you do not have to know which combination does what in Start_LargeMFUIcons. ;-) -- Hope this helps. Let us know.

Re: Enable Classic Startmenu WITH SMALL ICONS
But that path doesn't contain the StuckRects2 value.. which is also needed I
understand. So export Advanced and the StuckRects2 key?

Re: Enable Classic Startmenu WITH SMALL ICONS
My mistake,
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Curre ntVersion\ Explorer\StuckRects2 is what I meant. But, sure, copy both keys. -- Hope this helps. Let us know.
