I guess today in Windows Vista i'm going
to be showing you a lot of you if you
have Windows this day you may have
wondered where did they run them go in
the start menu well first of all I have
to say that the Run button is actually
the start search button as well bout to
type ms config into the run in the start
search button and hit enter it would pop
up as if I put it in the run dialog but
some of you guys who are still loyal and
true to windows XP still want to be able
to just go start run and so we have that
little run dialog box there type it in
just like you were in windows XP so i'm
going to show you guys how to enable
that first of all you right click on
your taskbar not the actual start or
about the taskbar and properties then
you go to the Start menu tab and in
start menu I'm going to hit customize
this will work for both the classic
start menu and the windows this start
menu so I'm going to scroll all the way
down about three quarters of the way
down till we see a box this is run
command all you have to do is check that
box and hit OK hit apply and puts ok
again and that will apply the run
command box right there into windows
vistas start I'll start me and that's
just how you do it when you run you'll
have asked on fig right there you can
type in and it will work just like if
you typed it right here so i hope that
guy's helps if I hope that helps you
guys if you're using Windows Vista if
you want to disable it at any time if
it's the exact same steps just following
the opposite way customized go down and
uncheck run command and apply it it'll
be gone and you'll never have to worry
about it again so that is how to enable
and disable the run command in windows
vista and the windows is to start menu
if you like it and if you have any more
controls that tutorial ideas for me to
do just a subscribe and send me a
message and I will get to it oh thanks
for watching please
now what I just showed you is just one
of the many forms of start menu and
taskbar customization in windows vista
another thing that i have does my sperm
menu is I right click and go to
properties go to start menu again and
customize again and I set the number of
recent program to display as eight I
think it is normally set to nine or ten
I decrease it to eight to shorten the
size of my start menu so when I actually
hit start it only goes about a little
more than halfway up the screen so i
have 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 recently displayed
items and i have enforced alongside back
to the top as my MA used in order to add
icons to hear simply select the program
so maybe I want to add paint up here I
will just click it and drag it until
it's above that dark arrow and release
and there it is it will always be there
no matter how many other programs i open
in this bottom eight it will be up here
ah and to open it you click it obviously
anytime you can move paint out of there
just by right-clicking on it and
selecting removed from this list and
pain is gone so I've chosen internet
browser and my email client as well as
media center printing and scanning etc
the DVD sweet and my disk defragmenter
to all be in the top was the eighth most
recently used programs in the bottom so
those are two little tricks for start
many customization that you guys I like
so like these videos go ahead and
subscribe I'll get to you peace
