    I have so many programs on my computer that they won't all fit into the 'Start > All Programs' window when it's opened. Is there anything that I can do to make them all fit, such as reducing the size of the font or extending the pane fully to the left of the screen? Any advice would be welcome. Thank you.

    You can have multiple columns of the menu.

    1. -Right click on the Windows taskbar
    2. -Select 'Properties'
    3. -Select 'Start Menu'
    4. -Click button 'Customize...'
    5. -Select 'Advanced'
    6. -Scroll down the list 'Start Menu Items' until the checkbox 'Scroll Programs' 7. -Disable checkbox 'Scroll Programs'
    8. -Click 'OK'

    Thank you very much, guys!

    I chose the 'scroll' option instead of the 'folders' one. I can view all the program entries now from 'Start > All Programs' and then simply scrolling down. I'm much obliged to you. :D
