Is there some adjustment to bring this back, some setting I haven't found? Thanks.
"Recent Programs" is what you're referring to, and unfortunately (or rather fortunately in my opinion) it only monitors the "Programs" folder rather than the whole Start Menu. This is explained in the first post in the NOTES section in more detail.

How do I get rid of the extra folders?
This happens if you don't install it on a "clean" (hard reset) state and you already customized your start menu (or installed something that did). You can use File Explorer to browse to \Windows\Start Menu ... and then do some housecleaning to your preferences.

Now, I see on the #-D flow Programs windows all teh other programs are listed except for the Sprint stuff (telnav, Sprint TV), they are not listed under All Programs (which gives you a launch programs screen) or when I want to add these sprint and other programs to that Touch Flo Programs screen. Anyway to add these?

Thanks!

To all of you guys... all of these questions were answered in the first and second post, and at least a half-dozen posts since. I can understand not wanting to read every post since there's a lot here now, but the first two posts have the details, so make sure you guys read carefully, OK? I have no problem helping, but I really don't like being a broken record.

Now just to be clear... the Programs folder is empty because everything was moved to the Start > **** Mobile folders. If you actually WANT the Sprint stuff, you need to check post 2 for the "Restore Sprint Content" package.

Don't mean to sound cranky, just want you guys to be careful and understand fully what you're getting into... welcome to PPCGeeks and stick around-- there's lots to see, learn, and do!
