- Click “Customize” to open the “Customize Start Menu” window.

- In the “Start menu items” scroll box, navigate to the “System Administrative Tools” section.
- Choose the “Display on All Programs menu and Start menu” option and click “OK” to exit the window.
- Click OK” again to exit the “Start menu and Taskbar Properties” window.
An “Administrative Tools” item should now appear on both the Start Menu and the All Programs menu for easy access
