i have installed a few games to my pc...but everytime, the game folder doesn't appear in the start menu, there also wont be a desktop shortcut auto created like my previous windows xp


ps

-while installing those games, it doesn't has option for me to create desktop shortcut or watever

- i dun have any problem with any software...problem only occured for games liek fifa 09, company of heroes etc

huh???..u said never occured to u...but u said u "made shortcuts to each of my game and put it in a folder ...."

means it happens to u also ?? sweat.gif

anyway...is not the matter of creating the desktop shortcut or creating a folder myself and put it in the start menu...everyone knows how to do that la.......i just wanna know why the games folder dint appear in the start menu and also the desktop shortcut are not auto created after installation of games in win vista.....because in win xp..i dun have such problem...is this 1 of win vista bug??

so far..all the answers given here is...create ur own folders and shortcuts and place it whereever u wan doh.gif ..it dint really answer my question yet though

Happens to me also. If it appears in the Game folder, then it wont appear in the start menu and vice versa. If I want to start the game as administrator, dont know how to do it for those fail to appear in start menu. In game folder, if I right click on the game, it does not give me an option to start it as administrator. Only those appear in Start Menu have this option. Why?

If your copy of game is original, it's supposed to be appeared in the "Games" folder instead of in start menu & desktop. It's not a bug, it's a Vista's "feature". sweat.gif
