Hi, currently you have one option when it comes to the sorting of 'All Programs': [ ] Show folders first.
So you either get a sorted list of shortcuts followed by a sorted list of folders, or the other way around.

I'd like to propose an option for mixed sorting, when installing a new program I generally don't really know whether it adds a folder or a plain shortcut, nor do I really care, it doesn't convey any information by which I might want to have them separated.
But with the current style of sorting I'll have to either remember what it added or at worst scan both lists when I need it again, which is not really helpful.
This would make a whole lot of sense, imho:
  1. Program A shortcut
  2. Program B folder
  3. Program C shortcut
and so on, quicker to find stuff by name.
Thanks.

Yes I think that's a good idea too. One sort order from A-Z regardless of whether it's a folder or a single shortcut. It makes it easier to locate items. The Windows 10 Start Menu has it today.

Ivo (the developer) will decide if it's worth coding.
