Win 2000 Start Menu/Desktop

When I install a program in Win2k with an admin account, how can I make the shortcuts appear in my user folder, instead of the "All Users" folder?

You can manually move them from the All Users profile to a specific profile. Go to WINNT/Profiles/All Users/Desktop and cut the shortcut from there and then place them in your profile's desktop WINNT/Profiles/*user*/Desktop. That should do it.

Thanks, though I was hoping there was a way to force them into my folder automatically. It's kind of a pain when you're obsessive like me and everything must be alphabetized.

For alphabetizing, right-click on the menu and sort by name. It's really a sign of good programming when software adds itself to the All Users category instead of the current user. Unless the software is truly an admin only type of thing.
