All Programs Menu not Alphabetized

Folders ok... items out of order

February 7, 2025 2:41:44 PM from Stardock ForumsStardock Forums

Clicking the "All Programs" reveals the start menu folders in alphabetical order.

But the contents of the folders  are not listed in alphabetical order.

The order does not seem to make sense.

This is a new computer and I have Start 11 installed on other windows11 machines and this does not seem to be an issue.Start Menu Exampl

 

Is there a setting I am missing to alphabetize?

Thank you for your assistance.

Thank you for escalating this.

Some additional observations. Clicking many of the shortcuts in the 'out of order' lists will not launch the application.

I can alternate click the shortcut  and choose "Open Folder Location" and double-click the shortcut located there and the application will launch (demonstrating that the shortcuts are valid)

I have attached my settings in case that might help.

I am a trial period user beginning as of 15 minutes ago.  I also would like the ability to have folders sorted alphabetically with the shortcuts as the Windows 11 menu seems to do by default.

BTW, I was playing with the Start Menu Configuration settings and enabling "Start menu should open showing all programs list" produces the alphabetical sorting I wanted, and "Open all apps list as a menu" produces exactly what I was looking for in terms of alphabetical sorting and a wide non scrolling display of all available apps -  which I thought was lost forever from previous Windows versions. The former seems to override the latter when both are "On".

Hi all,

The alphabetical sorting of the menu has been addressed in a recent beta release of the program.  We encourage you to give it a try and let us know what you think.  

For instructions how to get the latest Beta, and additional details and feedback, please see:

Thanks again and best regards,
