Putting Run on the Start button

As ever, Microsoft have changed a few things around with Vista to help justify the extortionate price of Ultimate Edition. Ironic really how we are encouraged to pay extra money for a 'new' operating system which causes us to have to relearn the latest changes to the interface..

But enough griping, thank-you Andy. Have you noticed that the RUN command is missing from the Start menu? Want it back again? Here's how to customise the Start menu to get rid of the new crap and bring back some old favourites..

Right click on Start button | Properties

Under Start menu tab, click on the Customise button

Scroll down through the list and check the Run command (tick/untick anything else you like/hate to see on the Start menu)

Click OK
