Remove Shortcut from Start menu


Recommended Posts

I don't like the msn explorer, msn messenger, remote assistant links on Start>Programs> and also i want to change the location of wmp, movie maker, IE links from start>programs to start>programs>Accessories

How it could be done? :unsure:

I tried these:

cmdow @ /hid

@echo off

del "%alluserprofile%\Set Program Access and Defaults.lnk"

del "%userprofile%\start menu\programs\Remote Assistance.lnk"

del "%userprofile%\start menu\programs\Outlook Express.lnk"

move "%userprofile%\start menu\programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" "%userprofile%\start menu\programs\Accessories\Windows Media Player.lnk"

move "%userprofile%\start menu\programs\Windows Movie Maker.lnk" "%userprofile%\start menu\programs\Accessories\Windows Movie Maker.lnk"

Most of command works except these two:

del "%alluserprofile%\Set Program Access and Defaults.lnk"

move "%userprofile%\start menu\programs\Windows Movie Maker.lnk" "%userprofile%\start menu\programs\Accessories\Windows Movie Maker.lnk"

If you look at my example below, you may notice the locations of the Set Program Access and Defaults and Windows Movie Maker shortcuts.

Cmdow @ /hid
Del "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Set Program Access and Defaults.lnk"
Del "%USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Remote Assistance.lnk"
Del "%USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Outlook Express.lnk"
Move "%USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Media Player.lnk" "%USERPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories"
Move "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Windows Movie Maker.lnk" "%ALLUSERSPROFILE%\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories"
