Adding My Videos to the right side of the start menu

How do I add the "My Videos" folder to the right side of the start menu along
with the other 'My' folders? It should be there but it isn't.

Dan,

This is possible (at the expense of "Set Program Access and Defaults" button
in the Start Menu). The REG files are available below:

Adds "My Videos" to XP Start Menu:

Undo:

Is it possible to add My Videos without replacing other buttons?

Nope. No additional slots can be added, atleast not without hacking the
shell extremely.

Is it possible to replace something else other than "Set Program Access and
Defaults"? Is there a way to have it replace "Favorites" instead?
