    To do this, you need to.

    1) Control Panel > Folder Options > View > Uncheck box 'Hide Extensions for known file types'.
    2) Go to your program files folder. In the folder of each program, look for the executable file. eg. 'Age of Mythology' = 'aom.exe' .
    3) Right click on the exe and create a shortcut.
    4) Right click on the start button and you'll see your start menu highlighted in explorer. Click on programs and either navigate to existing folders, or create new ones.
    5) Cut and paste the shortcut you created earlier. You can rename the shortcut, so instead of 'aom.exe', you have 'Age Of Mythology'.
    6) Never ever use that piece of sh!t windows washer again.

    What version are you using?
    In the latest version in the wash items section, there is the option to clean start menu history and start menu click history, I don't know if that is what is causing the problem though.
