I've had a similar problem. I used the shortcut key sequence to a program on my start
menu. Then I decided to put the program somewhere else in my start menu and delete
the first one. I found I could no longer use the same shortcut key sequence. All
microsoft says is that if you use a custom shortcut sequence you can't use it for
another program. It doesn't say how to delete an old one, where they are stored (in
the registry) or anything. I'd just like to remove referrences to the old shortcut
on my system and use the same one again in the new start menu location. It reverts
to NONE just like in the message above. I can't find where the darn things are stored.
