Enable start menu scrolling

Time Required: 1 Minute, 5 Minutes, 10 Minutes, 15 Minutes

Notes: This tweak makes it so that, if you have a lot of programs on your start menu, instead of making two columns, you will have one where you have to scroll down to see the rest of the programs.

Warnings: This is dangerous if you do not know what you are doing. I do not take responsibility for anything that you do to your computer that harms it or any files on it in any way.
