Sorting All Progams folders


Recommended Posts

Here's a question (yes, I've done a search and not yet found anything satisfactory) - is it possible to have all my UA CD software which is installed via RunOnceEx sorted into folders?

Meaning I have folders within All Programs: INTERNET; MULTIMEDIA; GRAPHICS etc, etc and I want to have the automatically installed software sorted into these.

I had hoped there was a way to do it through a registry tweak as there is for pinned start menu items, but so far I can't find anything.

u could but u'd have to specify the folders to install

for example when instaling office u can put installpath=c:\program files\ etc. etc.

u can do this with msi and with other installers u're able to do this, with some of them u write -R in the command line to get the setup.ini file...

look into the unattended guide and the forum to see which switches are accepted.

so in the end yes u can accomplish it..

I know that i can set the installation directory within C:\Program Files with many installer types, but I'm wondering about customizing Start->All Programs...

Which, I suppose, is c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs

Where you would normally find individual folders for each application you've installed, I want to further organize them into category grouping folders.

i.e.: C\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\INTERNET\Mozilla Firefox ... and so forth...

Here's a thought...

I used regshot to look at the changes when I reshuffled the start menu and came up with a whole lot of entries in

[HKEY_USERS\S-1-5-21-2025429265-2111687655-1060284298-1003\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Start Menu2\Programs]

Under that is every software title listed IN ADDITION to it being listed in the new folders I created.

Any thoughts as to how much of this key I would need to import (provided that even worked) to get the desired result? I realize that this part of the registry is generated when a user account is created/logged into, or something like that...so if this key were to be imported in RunOnceEx would it even work properly?

i do that . in my way . more easy than reg settings .

(or maybe i do not understant correct your needs)

c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs

is JUST a folder , who can be accessed with a .cmd

so this is doing my cleanup.cmd

i create a folder named <APPlications> and i move there all my uA apps links.

and as last operation i sort all of them with

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[-HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder\Start Menu2\Programs]

i do that . in my way . more easy than reg settings .

(or maybe i do not understant correct your needs)

c:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs

is JUST a folder , who can be accessed with a .cmd

so this is doing my cleanup.cmd

i create a folder named <APPlications> and i move there all my uA apps links.

I had been hoping for something other than a batch file to do the job, but this will likely work just fine... You'll have to excuse me, I know almost nothing about writing batch files...but how would you write the batch in order to make the folders you want to move your programs into?

i.e. creating

C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\UTILITIES

and then moving programs into it.

what you want is a CUSTOM job .

so the chance to find somewhere your batch file is ... zero.

you must write the code for EVERY apps you want moved (as link) ,

as a last task when you insyall the apps ,

or if you use uA mode as a last task for all your apps (recommended).

(i do it in a single cleanup.cmd , as a last operation in my config.js [WPI] .)

Thanks for all your help!

I think this will work fine.
