How do you sort start menu programs?

Sort Start Menu Programs

As new programs are installed and deleted from your PC, a number of events occur. Bits of undeleted program references and obsolete short cuts clutter up your computer, increasing the chance of computer errors. These common computer problems can be revealed with a free PC health scan. More noticeable to the average computer user is the disordered state of the Start menu's program list, as new programs are added. To restore order to the Program's list single-click an entry on the list with the right button, and select “Sort by Name” in the options menu. The Programs list is now alphabetized. Internet Explorer's Favorites can be alphabetized in the same way.
