Kindovic Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 HiUnder the vista start menu, i can see shortcuts to music, pictures, saved game, documents and the user folder. Is there anyway to add the "Downloads" in the user folder shortcut to the start menu?Thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
x-Shadow-x Posted September 20, 2008 Share Posted September 20, 2008 (edited) Not really, the only way is to sacrifice one of thoes other folders on the rite. Right click on the folder you want to change and go to properties. Change the name under the general tab (example: music changes to Downloads), then go to the location tab, hit the move button and select the location of your download folder.

mc134 Posted September 23, 2008 Share Posted September 23, 2008 (edited) Only way to do it is to replace "Games" with "Downloads" using these registry entries:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{ED228FDF-9EA8-4870-83b1-96b02CFE0D52}]@="Downloads"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{ED228FDF-9EA8-4870-83b1-96b02CFE0D52}\DefaultIcon]@="imageres.dll,-184"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{ED228FDF-9EA8-4870-83b1-96b02CFE0D52}\InProcserver32]@="shell32.dll"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{ED228FDF-9EA8-4870-83b1-96b02CFE0D52}\shell\open\command]@="explorer.exe shell:Downloads"[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{ED228FDF-9EA8-4870-83B1-96B02CFE0D52}]@="Downloads"To remove and set back to default:Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\CLSID\{ED228FDF-9EA8-4870-83b1-96b02CFE0D52}][-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\CLSID\{ED228FDF-9EA8-4870-83B1-96B02CFE0D52}] Edited September 23, 2008 by mc134 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
