PowerCLI extremely slow startup


I found that when I open PowerShell ISE and try to run my PowerCLI scripts, there is a HUGE delay in getting the snapin loaded. I don't mean a long delay like a user would say "there's a long delay" I mean like an IT Professional says there is a log delay.

Adding a program to All Users Start Menu in Vista or Server 2008

OK, this is annoying. In 2008, they have moved the All Users Start menu deep into the directory structure.

Look in:
C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs\

There you will find the various folders that are common to all users. You can create new folders and organized them however you'd like. For things Like Putty or TCPView, simply hold shift and control down to drag a shortcut into the folder of choice. Please, Clean up your descriptions before you leave the folder. Leaving the ".exe - shortcut" after the file name is so Level 1 tech support.
