XP left start menu pinned folder drop down list problem

July 14, 2008

I am talking about the LEFT side of the windows XP startup. The startup menu

theme is Windows XP NOT Windows Classic.

I need to make a pinned folder on the LEFT side of the Windows XP start menu

to display a sub menu (or drop down list) list for shortcuts, and NOT have

windows explorer open a folder for the custom shortcuts instead. I know you

can change folders in the right side menu to show sub menus (or drop down

list) by selecting "Display as link" option, but there is no such option for

new folders. Can you help me change any new folder on the left side just to

display sub menus (or drop down list) list only?

BASICALLY:

I have used "Windows Classic" start menu and want to merge it with the

"Windows XP" start menu essentially. I want to make a few folders on the left

side of start menu display a list of shortcuts or items they contain.
