I have tried creating a folder in every known location to get an additional folder to show up in the start menu so I can throw some games and what not under it...does anyone have any idea how to do this?
I've tried creating a folder named "Games" in the following:
C:ProgramData
C:UsersmynameAppDataLocal
C:Program Files
C:Program Files (x86)
C:ProgramDataMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuPrograms
Apparently the 0-Z list doesn't read any of these directories, but I am baffled that my Nvidia driver created a folder and it shows up under "N" just fine...I'm assuming this is some type of regedit but I have no clue where to begin...Any help is appreciated, thanks!

C:ProgramDataMicrosoftWindowsStart MenuPrograms

and, you have to put stuff in the folders before they'll show up in the Start Menu.

I have, however, found I needed to logout/login to see the changes afterwards.

At least restart Explorer.
Hmm yeah I've tried logging out and restarting...still doesn't show up, I'm assuming it would be under "G" for games but I'm clueless at this point...
