Title: Ordering those unordered Start and Favorites menus
Question: Do you ever get annoyed of those unordered Start Menu and Favorites Menus? If yes then here's a quick remedy...
Answer:
The following routines will only work as far as I know on Windows 9x and NT 4 - it doesn't work on Windows ME, Windows 2000 or Windows XP.
const
SStartMenuPath = 'Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Start Menu';
SFavoritesPath = 'Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Favorites';
function OrganizeStartMenu: Boolean;
var
Reg: TRegistry;
begin
Reg := TRegistry.Create;
try
if Reg.KeyExists(SStartMenuPath) then Reg.DeleteKey(SStartMenuPath);
finally
Reg.Free;
end;
end;
function OrganizeFavorites: LongInt;
var
Reg: TRegistry;
begin
Reg := TRegistry.Create;
try
if Reg.KeyExists(SFavoritesPath) then Reg.DeleteKey(SFavoritesPath);
finally
Reg.Free;
end;
end;
Enjoy!
