How I customize the Start Menu Shortcuts in Windows 10 (1803)

In this Video I show how I customize the Windows 10 Start Menu in version 1803 and above. Starting with version 1903 the User is, also, able to access the Start Menu folder inside the C:\ProgramData folder. That folder is hidden, but once accessed it'll allow greater customization of the Windows 10 Start Menu. The folder shown in the Video is the C:\Users\UserName\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs folder. To access it goto a non-native (third-party) installed Program's Shortcut and (right-click) it. Then select "open file location". That will open the current User's Start Menu Programs folder. You can browse directly to either of the before mentioned folders, but it may be necessary to un-hide Hidden Folders first. Files, folders and Drives can be un-hidden by going to the Control Panel, then clicking on the File Explorer Options link and under the View Tab selecting the Show hidden files, folders and Drives check box beneath the heading of Hidden files and folders. Setting-up identically named Folders in both locations should result in only one Folder with that name in the Start Menu. UWP Apps do not seem to be re-locatable, or atleast I couldn't find an unobtrusive way of moving\manipulating them. One other thing to be aware of is, when new Folders are created in the ProgramData Folder it must be named immediately. Right-clicking and renaming a Folder in that folder is disallowed. The customization of the Windows 10 Start Menu is not as easy or complete as previous versions of Windows, but this will allow the User some control over where to place Shortcuts in the Menu.
