I was playing around with some settings in Vista today trying to find anything ‘new’ to tell you guys about, I didn’t have too long so I didn’t find the ultimate tweak but I did find 2 useful shortcut tweaks.

They both involve the start menu;

Add Run Command to Your Start Menu

  • Right click in your task bar
  • Select properties
  • Click the start menu tab
  • Click customize
  • Scroll down and check run command
  • Click ok
  • Your run command will now be in your start menu

Add a Regedit Shortcut to Your Start Menu

  • If you are like me and love regedit then you will love this tweak
  • Click on your start menu and type regedit
  • On the regedit.exe program right click
  • Select pin to start menu now reopen your start menu and you will see the shortcut
