When I click the start button, then All Programs there are TOO MANY listings here.
I realize these are just shortcuts and I could go through and delete each one indiviually, but is there a way I can do this from windows explorer? Where I can select many at once to delete?
Any help is appreciated.

Click on start then go to the control panel and delete that way
there is not that many in your start menu. just right click each one and click remove from this list.

Right-click on the start button. Choose "Open All Users". Then, right-click again and choose "Open". If you want to remove something, select it (you can select multiple items as well). Right-click on the selected item(s) and check "Hidden" for the attributes. This will hide it from the start menu but not delete it.
Go to
Documents and settings > current user (you) > Start Menu.
Then delete/modify just like you would regural folders.
If it is just few items you can also right click directly on the item in the start menu and choose delete.

c:\documents and settings\all users\start menu
c:\documents and settings\YourUserName\Start Menu
or right click on start menu and choose explore and explore all users…..
Anything in all users shows up for all users, anything in just yours only shows up for you.
use a freeware like ccleaner
Right click on Start button…Select Open All Users and you should be in window explorer…Erase/organize all the shortcuts the way you want.
