shortcut menu items

[prostetnic]

I have repacked on XP (fatal mistake you say, i know..) anyhoo about half way through the second snapshot XP went fubar and started recreating all its icons on the start menu??? Now in my product i have a load of menu icons i dont want. I have deleted the actual shortcuts but the root folders are still there (says read only and part of [INSTALLDIR]) How do i get rid of them?

I have edited the direct table to dump all the shortcuts except the program i want.

Is this stored in the registry settings of a component (ie clsid or other) i think i saw shortcuts in there once before??

To remove folders shown under StartMenuFolder or PrgramMenuFolder in Shortcut view, you need to clean up records in Directory table.
