I would rather have have a bird's-eye view of all my programs than scroll down the programs list. Is there a way to have Windows 7 All Programs list the programs in multiple columns like XP, or did Microsoft remove this capability?

did Microsoft remove this capability?
Yes, they did, but all is not lost:
Vista Start Menu works with Windows 7
Also available is the Classic Start Menu (CSMenu) for Windows 7:
You can swap your favorites menu item as a programs menu, if you don't really make use of it. Works on Vista and Windows 7.

very cute! it doesn't make it columns though, if the list is full, you'll have to scroll, and the old check box 'Scroll Programs' is not present in the Vista/7 start menu properties ... any idea how to change that? i365.photobucket.com/albums/oo94/eeemolly/win7progscroll.jpg– Molly7244Jan 26, 2010 at 0:59

Make the DWORD value
Start_ScrollPrograms
underHKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
and set it to 0?– user1931Jan 26, 2010 at 2:03
