Why Didn't I Think Of This Sooner?

Posted by Brad Adrian in "THOUGHT" @ 07:59 AM

Like most people, I've got a ton of applications loaded on my Pocket PC; some I seldom use, some I use every day. The problem I've been having is that on the Programs screen, the icons are all sorted alphabetically, but I'd rather have my most often-used applications listed at the top of the screen.

The solution (once my tiny brain came up with it) is amazingly simple: just rename the shortcuts so the icons appear in the order I want.



Using File Explorer, I just went to the My Device\Windows\Start Menu\Programs and use the ol' tap-and-hold feature to rename the shortcuts, adding a "1-" or "2-" to the beginning of the ones I want at the top of my Programs screen. Simple, huh?

Such easy tips can still be really useful. What similar kinds of simple but helpful tips can you share?
