Are there any tutorials on creating sub folders in "Programs" that have a icon image associated with them (like the Office folder)?

Hi

Start Menu program folders are within the main "Programs" folder here:

\Windows\Start Menu\Programmes\Office Mobile"

for example. You can use software like Total Commander to go to this folder and create new folders for programmes. Basically you need to create a new folder then create a new shortcut in that folder called icon.lnk. The short cut shoud read "1#\XXX\YYY.dll,-ZZZ" without the quotes where XXX location of the .dll or .exe that contains your icon, YYY is the name of the .dll or .exe and ZZZ is the number of the icon resource within the .dll or .exe file.

Check out the link "Start Menu Customisation" in my signature. If you need more help then please post back.

Cheers
