start menu not expanded
How do I get rid of the little down arrows on the Start Menu->All Programs?
I'd rather have them all seen at once, cascaded when there's too many to fit in one column.... -- ************************************************** **** Most learned on these newsgroups Tumppi, Helsinki, FINLAND (translations from/to FI not always accurate) ************************************************** ****

Re: start menu not expanded

It hides all programs that I haven't started from the StartMenu, either because I use them through context-menu on Rclick, or because there's a shortcut on the desktop... Is there anywhere in TweakUI to affect this?? -- ************************************************** **** Most learned on these newsgroups Tumppi, Helsinki, FINLAND (translations from/to FI not always accurate) ************************************************** **** "Thomas Wendell" <tumppiw_nospam@hotmail.com> kirjoitti viestissä:OcIXBJq2FHA.1412@TK2MSFTNGP10.phx.gbl... > It is unchecked ("Vieritä Ohjelmat-valikkoa) > (and inline) > > Tumppi, Helsinki, FINLAND > > > > > "Nepatsfan" <nepatsfan@SBXXXIX.com> kirjoitti > viestissä:Zpednb70hakxq_3eRVn-pg@comcast.com... >> Thomas Wendell wrote: >>> How do I get rid of the little down arrows on the Start >>> Menu->All Programs?

Re: start menu not expanded
The only other setting I can think of that would cause a down
arrow to be displayed on the Start Menu would be if you were using the Classic Start Menu and had enabled Personalized Menus. You might want to check the following: Right click on the Taskbar again and select Properties. Click on the Start Menu tab. Click on the Customize button. Scroll down to the bottom of the box and remove the check mark next to "Use Personalized Menus".
