I want to remove the Pictures item from the topmost section of the Windows-7 Start Menu, but there is no option to do so in the Tasbar and Start Menu Properties dialog.
Expected:
Actual:
There are options to remove the other items (recorded tv, music, videos, etc.), and the option is present in the registry (HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\StartMenu\StartPanel\MyPics\Hide\CheckedValue=dword:0
), but it just doesn’t reflect in the Start Menu (Pictures is still shown while the others are removed).
Does anyone have any idea what could be causing this? Could it be a bug? (It's strange that only this one Start Menu item is broken.)
Looks like a bug/limitation to me. What happens if you change from Windows Classic theme to Windows Standard under the Appearance control panel? – Mikel – 2011-02-02T23:02:54.093
@Mikel, nope, the entry is still in the Start Menu and the option is still absent from the dialog box. (Yes, Windows is up-to-date.) – Synetech – 2011-02-03T00:49:24.147
