I tried for hours last night to get this to work, it's the only windows setting I can't find a way to modify in the Registry. When the start menu is set to classic mode(by a system policy reg key), how do I modify the registry setting for using small icons??? I tried setting the 9th value of the Stuckrects2 key as many people have mentioned and then logging out or restarting, but this seems to have no effect! I've made changes to the start menu, logged out, exported the key after login, and tested it to have no effect. Could someone please post in detail how they were able to get this to work? please?
