Include Modern UI Apps in the Config section of Start8 to be placed on right side of start menu

from Stardock Forums

While checking out the beta of ModernMix, I thought it might be a nice idea to tweak Start8 configuration settings to allow "Modern UI Apps" under All Programs to be included as a choice under selecting shortcuts for the start menu right hand side.  If it's possible for me to create that with existing version, please advise.  Thanks  -Jack

Already done.  Look in All Programs for ModernUI programs.

So I gather relocating the "Modern UI Applications" folder from All Programs, to the right hand side of the Start Menu where "Favorites", "Control Panel" etc. are located is somewhat difficult.

Yes, it is difficult.  In the the All Programs section, the Modern UI Applications has no properties (so no path is noted as in other folders within All Programs).  Using the program "Search Everywhere", I'm not able to find a folder with the Modern UI App... name.  So, I'm not able to get that folder as a shortcut on the right-side of the Start Menu.  I've created a few right-side shortcuts and am familiar with how to add a location.  I just can't find the location.
