Never trying this but you can start to export values from HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Today\Items. You can import later to include any shortcut you want to be listed ;)

Try settingssavior (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=308100), i think it has a provision for it. But I am not sure if works or not!

I have done this before, and unfortunately, a simple registry tweak doesn't do the trick. You will need to write (or edit) an *.provxml in your kitchen specifying the *.lnks to move to the "\Windows\Start Menu" directory.

Don't think this can be done by Reg, the default items are Stored als .lnk under "\windows\Startmenu\" controled by Initfiles.dat or Proxml files!
Maybe you can try Proxml syntax with UC
like this

<characteristic type="\Windows\Start Menu\" translation="install">

<characteristic type="Internet Explorer.lnk " translation="install">
<characteristic type="Copy">
<parm name="Source" value="\Windows\pie.lnk" translation="install"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>



and delete Help :

<characteristic type="\Windows\Start Menu\Help.lnk" translation="install">
<characteristic type="Delete">
<parm name="ForceDelete"/>
</characteristic>
</characteristic>

You are right ...sorry for misguiding, by mistake I thought it is a today item plugin which is enabling/disabling is controlled by registry values.

edited the title to maybe get some more eyeballs on this.

i think u are asking if u can customize the start menu...

use total commander and go to your main memory. then click on windows folder. then click on start menu folder. here you'll see link files for all your programs. with your stylus, click and hold...Copy/Move. then click on Tree...find the directory you want to move it to or just plain delete the link file off that folder and keep just the ones you want.

hope it helps.

If the Rom is UC compatible,than this is most safe way to put these setting right after each hard reset.

That sound very nice, where i find that provxml to edit it? or i may create it? (how) thx

BTW: thx to all for the replies

I would just add it to the end of an existing .provxml file. In your kitchen, go to OEM and search for mxip_oemupdate_*.provxml (something like that). Just open it up and add the entries before the </wap-provisional> tag at the end. A tip on editing, search the boards for Sleuth's User Customization thread. It gives tons of examples and links for editing .provxml files. When I get a chance, I'll post a copy of what I use to help you out.
