    Add a sub-folder in Package & Deployment Wizard

    Is there a way to use PDW to create a 'sub-group' in StartMenu items within the main IconGroup? For example, instead of StartMenu listing items 'Icon1', 'Icon2', 'Icon 3' as items under 'Group0', is there a way to create a 'sub-group' (IconX) with title 'Reports' that has items 'Icon1', 'Icon2', 'Icon 3' listed under it?
    Group0-GroupName
    .......Reports
    .................Icon1 'Report A'
    .................Icon1 'Report B'
    .................Icon1 'Report B'

    Re: Add a sub-folder in Package Development Wizard

    jdc - thanks for the links. The PDW structures a program folder (GroupName) with any number of file links in the folder, but i am looking to see how i can have the program folder, with a sub-folder, with file links in the sub-folder? Having trouble finding how to do this?

    Are you wanting to add items to the User's Start Menu folders, or the All Users Start Menu folders?

    You should be able to create folder subfolders as needed and place items in them.

    I don’t see the way to add a folder (sub folder) to the Start menu folder.
