Can I quickly add existing program shortcuts to the main area of the Start Menu?
Yes, but this feature is only available if the Start Menu is set to the Start Menu view not Classic Start Menu view. To know if you can perform this task click on the Start button and if you see All Programs and not Programs as a choice, then you can perform the pin to Start menu feature. To add or pin an existing shortcut to the main area that is seen when you click the Start button, first find the program shortcut in the Start All Programs, then while pointing to the shortcut right-click and choose Pin to Start Menu. The shortcut now appears in the list of shortcuts at the top of the Start Menu. To remove a pinned item from the Start Menu, click on the Start Menu button and right-click on the shortcut, choose Unpin from Start Menu and the shortcut will be removed.
