Launch programs menu with a button - General Topics

I want to create a shortcut that can launch the programs menu like I can when I tap on start, programs. If I create a simple programs shortcut launching it will open the file explorer with small icons instead I want large icons like those I see when I tap on start, programs. I will be grateful if anyone can help me

Two possible solutions:
1) Search on the forum for quickmenu, this program launches programs when you tap on start; but no big icons...
2) Mortbuttons (LINK) i think the pics are self explanatory...and yes customizable big icons...
Mortbutton is the best IMO...

Create a shortcut in \Windows\Start Menu\Programs\, from the file "folderview.exe" located in the Windows directory. Then you can set a button to the shortcut.

How to create shortcuts in WM6

How do I create shortcuts in WM6? I've figured out how to create shortcuts to standard programs (ie: \program files\googlemaps\googlemaps.exe), but how do I create short cuts to "built-in" apps that don't really have an .exe? For Example, how do I create a shortcut to text messaging? or (more importantly) how do I create a shortcut to the "programs" folder or the "settings" folder?

- create an LNK file using your PC's text editor containing this:
19#:MSINBOX -service "SMS" -to ""
how do I create a shortcut to the "programs" folder or the "settings" folder?
- this might help

awesome, thank you. Do you have a list of all the "system" shortcuts like :MSINBOX, etc? :MSNOTETAKE is another one I found. Is there a place where I can get all of these?
Thanks again!

Open Settings Folder Programatically Question

It might sound stoopid but I am unable to open the Windows\Start Menu\Settings folder with the big icons using a shortcut.
I can use Tap on Start > Settings and it works.
But I cannot reproduce this effect in a shortcut - it tries listing mode instead of big icons mode with tabs.
Thanx,
Bogdan

Remove program links from "all programs"

How do you remove program links in the "all programs" option under the programs tab? How can I create a shortcut for a program installed on the storage card? Thanks
ALL Programs
The all programs button on the TF3D panel is just another link to the start menu folder in windows. So adding or removing LNK files there changes both.
I use Total Commander to create shortcuts of manually installed apps, and move them to the windows start menu folder. They will then show up in the windows start icon / programs menu and the ALL PROGRAMS list in TF3D and you can then add them to the programs (or ATT) panel of TF3D.
The LNK format is simple, you can make them in a text editor as well. The format is
19#"\path\yourapp.exe"
on one line where the number 19 is the number of characters after the #.
another example:
21#"\Windows\Camera.exe"

Task manager icon

Hello everyone.
Having some trouble with task manager shortcut on my hd2. I want shortcut on todays screen at quick links, but I can get this on, which is placed in settings/system (top left corner in picture).
If I copy taskmgr.lnk from /windows to /windows/start menu/ I get the middle one in picture and if I copy and create shortcut from /windows/taskmgr.exe, then I get the right icon which is really ugly.
I was searching on web about *.lnk files and I find out that this is just a text file. The middle icons content is "26#:MSTASKMGR?:taskmgrapp" in the right ones "22#"\Windows\Taskmgr.exe"".
So, I want to create new *.lnk file for task manager which will contain desired icon and I wonder what should be written in lnk file.
