This article describes how to create a common folder on the Start menu in Windows NT 4.0.
Common folders allow access to programs to all users.
Use the right mouse button to click the Start button, and then click Open All Users on the menu that appears. Create a new folder in the Programs folder. Add shortcuts that you want to be accessible to all users to the new folder. Common folders appear below the separator line at the bottom of the Programs menu. Administrators can use this method to create shortcuts in one place that appear on the Programs menu for all users.
