I downloaded WinamPAQ, have it on my Axim and it works perfectly, but it doesn't show up in my Programs folder from the Start Menu. I can only start the program by navigating to the Program Files folder using File Explorer.

Does anyone know how I can get WinamPAQ to show up in the Programs folder on the start menu?

Thanks in advance,

Here you go:

Tap-and-hold the program's executable file in File Explorer.
Select Copy.
Navigate to \Windows\Start Menu\Programs.
In the Programs folder, select Edit on the menu bar.
Select Paste Shortcut.
Optionally, rename the shortcut to something you prefer.

When you next look in the Programs folder, you should see the program icon there.
