Undo Start menu tweak

Featured Replies

Hi, I can no longer drag and drop programs to the MFU section of the Start panel.

I don't use the dynamically generated list of most used programs, but I drag-and-drop my own links in the same area, after having set the option "Number of programs on Start" in the start panel options.

I suspect the tweak "Disable Tracking of most used programs" is responsible of that.

Is this correct? If yes, how can I disable this tweak?

Thanks for your help.

Venator :hello:

Tracking tweak doesn't seem to cause Drag & Drop malfunction. More likely:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

; Revert "Disable Drag and Drop"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
"Start_EnableDragDrop"=dword:00000001
"StartMenuChange"=dword:00000001

; Revert "Remove Pinned Apps List from Start Panel"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoStartMenuPinnedList"=-

No matter how many "programs on Start menu" are set, you can add your own links anyway.

Hey,

Hope this helps..

Create a new DWORD value named "NoChangeStartMenu", and set the new value to equal "1" to enable the restriction or "0" to disable the restriction.

Registry Settings:

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\

Explorer]

Value Name: NoChangeStartMenu

Data Type: REG_DWORD (DWORD Value)

Value Data: (0 = disable restriction, 1 = enable restriction)

lol that's ok, you have posted quite a different tweak... ;)

Actually, this dynamic list isn't working on my PC.

I'm probably applying some reg tweak that disables it.

Anyone knows how to restore thisdynamic list?

Thanks.

The tweak posted above doesn't work? Try to remove NoStartMenuPinnedList value also from HKLM:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoStartMenuPinnedList"=-

Well, how about this:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoStartMenuMFUprogramsList"=-

[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies\Explorer]
"NoStartMenuMFUprogramsList"=-

Thanks, man. Even this doesn't work!
