So you've helped me to understand how one can use a OrganizeStartMenu_OEM.RAR to copy elements into alternate locations in the Start Menu. The original PPCGeeks_OEM.RAR goes untouched, so in our example we end up with:

via PPCGeeks_OEM.RAR
\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\1-Calc Lite.lnk
via OrganizeStartMenu_OEM.RAR
\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\Accessories\1-Calc Lite.lnk

The two methods I can think of to alleviate this are to:
a) use initflashes.txt to MOVE the item as opposed to copying an additional item
b) use initflahses.txt to DELETE (which you have stated is not currently supported)

Sorry to be so repetitive ... can initflashes.txt be used to MOVE an item?

I guess the other option is to start a project to rework the PPCGeeks_OEM.RAR so that all of the initflashes.txt files direct the shortcut links to alternate locations.

You mentioned that you could think of two alternate solutions. Am I close?
