I have too many programs in ‘all programs’ list. They are going off the right
side of the screen. I would like to create a folder called (for example)
‘Microsoft stuff’ and move all the Microsoft stuff into it. That would free
up a lot of space on the screen. I could also do this with other similarly
related programs for improved organization. Is there an easy way to do this?
I don’t want to scroll the programs.
I did this some years ago but I’ve forgotten how I did it.

C:\Documents and Settings\<<UserName>>\Start Menu\Programs create a
folder and name it MicroSoft Stuff.
Now when you open the All Programs from your start menu, you will see
a folder called MicroSoft Stuff. Drag and drop it where you want it,
and drag and drop everything you want into it.

You can also make the columns narrower by renaming any very long program
names. Just right click and select "Rename"
