Windows Tip: Clean Up Start Menu

Have you ever wanted to remove annoying shortcuts or just clean up your start menu?

Right-click on the Start button and select Explore.

Be careful what you change while investigating the start menu, because you're now able to edit it directly.

To add new items to your Start Menu folder, do the following:

Right-click on your desktop and choose New.
Select Shortcut.
Use the Browse button to map a path to where the program is stored.
After you've created a shortcut, drag-and-drop it into the Start Menu folder.

Remember that the Start Menu is built upon folders and shortcuts. If you'd like to make a sub-menu, just add a new folder.
