Keep the “Start-All Programs” menu in order
Certain questions about Windows get asked over and over. One of the recurring puzzlements for average PC users is how to alphabetize the All Programs list in the Windows XP Start Menu. As you add new programs, the list gets jumbled but it is very simple to get everything back in order. I posted something about this a few years back but it won’t hurt to come back to the subject.
To keep things ordered, open the All Programs list and right-click on any entry. (Note that clicking on a blank spot doesn’t work.) 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, followed by entries that are single files. The figure below illustrates the process.
