In classic start menu, you have the normal stuff, Program Files, etc on the bottom, and then a spacer, and stuff on top...

how do u remove spacers within the startmenu?
 
Simply move everything from
Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\USERNAME\Start Menu
into the programs folder.

Also look in
Code:
C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Start Menu

Basically everything located in the Start Menu folder is shown at the top and everything in the Programs Folder is shown underneath.
 
Yes, but I don't want them to be the same thing, I just want the spacer gone....there are 2

I think they're hard coded. They are ther in all start menu variastions, just coloured differently.
 
I don't believe so, I'm pretty sure alONG time ago, I seen someone have it all tweaked out, I just don't know how to do it.
 
As Lord said, they are coded into the visual style.
 
Well technically, im using a theme, but classic start menu isn't part of a theme.

Umm, I know people have removed it, frig. Ummm
 
You're using a visual style (.MSSTYLES). The theme file (.THEME) only applies the visual style and a combination of other things. The classic start menu is included with the visual style.
 
oh well then...I understand what your saying....

I guess I should find a tweaking forum, cause I'm 100% sure there is away to remove this spacers. I thought someone on here did it before, I must of be mistaken. Hmmm
 
You can remove it, edit the .MSTYLES file. Download ResEdit.
 
Why didn't ya say that before, but where in .MSTYLES

oh wait thats not the way I was thinking of, but I'll give it a shot.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
