- XP Start Menu?
- Posted by ManyBeers on March 22nd, 2006
I use Windows XP SP2 with the modernXP start menu(not classic) and in the
left-hand pane I have several permanent shortcuts to programs pinned there.
One of them is Mozilla and I would like to modify a value. In order to do so
I right-click the shortcut click properties and click the SHORTCUT tab, but
it isn't there . Where is the shortcut tab.?What I want to do is get rid of
the Splashscreen and to do so you need to append the shortcut target
with......-nosplash..... I have done this successfully to Mozilla shortcuts
but that is before I moved its location to the start panel yesterday
In fact none of the shortcuts on the left pane show a shortcut tab when
properties are selected. Are they shortcuts? Thanks in advance

Open Mozilla folder, and create a shortcut to mozilla.exe with the required
command-line parameters. Right-click the shortcut, and then choose "Pin to
Start menu". You may then delete the old item from the Start menu Pinned
list.
