    Here's the easy way, although you can only do it one folder at a time, and it won't stay sorted when new items are added:

    * Right-click on an item in the folder you want to sort, and select Sort by Name.


    Here's the hard way, which allows you to sort all the folders in your Start Menu at once:

    * Open the Registry Editor, and expand the branches to HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MenuOrder.
    * Delete the MenuOrder key, and close the Registry Editor.


    Here's how to sort the entire Start Menu automatically every time you turn on your computer:

    * Write a script to delete the registry key described above. Full details on how to do this are in Windows 98 Annoyances, the book.
