Default Removing Help and Find from start menu?

anyone know how to do it? I never use these items and i would prefer not to have them on the start menu, but i can't find any program or registry hack to remove them.

I am probably not the only person who is looking for this. And with the SE version comming out, with landscape mode, i want to be able to trim my start menu down a bit.

Thanks!

If I'm hearing you correctly, are you meaning the program short-cuts that show up when you press start? If so, use FileExplorer and go the the /Windows/StartMenu/ directory. Then delete the unused short-cuts.

You wont find a short cut for "find" neither for "help" and those are the options that he wants to delete, this is why I said that it's not possible.

Is it not possible because it is inherent in the OS or some other reason? I'm not doubting you, just looking for the technical reason.

Thanks!
