How to alphabetize the Programs and Favorites lists
A surprising number of PC users are unaware of the simple method that is available to keep the Start-All Programs list in alphabetical order. As new programs are installed, they are often tacked onto the end of the list and after a while the list becomes jumbled. To keep things neat, open the All Programs list and right-click on any entry. The context menu that appears will contain an entry “Sort by Name”. Click that and the list will be alphabetized. Folders will be listed first.
A very similar operation can keep your Favorites list in order. In Internet Explorer, open the Favorites menu and right-click on any entry. Here too, the context menu will contain an entry “Sort by Name”. In Firefox open the Bookmarks menu and the procedure is the same.
