Enable Start Menu Scrolling (Windows 98/Me/2000/XP)

When there are more items on the Start Menu than can fit on the screen, Windows can either create a second column of items or it can create a scrolling menu. This tweak controls that functionality.

1.Open your registry and find or create the key below.

2.Create a new String value, or modify the existing value, called "StartMenuScrollPrograms" and set it according to the value data below.

Exit your registry; you may need to restart or log out of Windows for the change to take effect.

System Key : [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft \Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced]
