I have a question about Replacing Start Menu scrolling with good 'ol multiple columns:

My Win XP Pro was set this way, and I was using the classic style menus. Suddenly, my Administrator account has gone back to scrolling, in the classic view only! All other accounts show multiple columns in both classic or new style, and even the Administrator account shows the multiple columns if I use the new style menu. The checkbox is always cleared, the registry shows the scrolling value is set to "No," and I am baffled. I've tried toggling the checkbox and rebooting, I've tried to check the Microsoft Knowledge base, and I am out of ideas. Does anyone know how to fix this?

I'm thinking you're referring to the double arrows you have to click on to expand the full menu list. If so, go to Start >> Settings >> Taskbar and Start Menu >> Start Menu tab >> Customize button and uncheck 'Use Personalized Menus'.
