Adding a New Program Manager Group

Windows NT Setup automatically creates the Main, Accessories, Administrative Tools, Games, and Startup groups in Program Manager. To have Windows NT create a new Program Manager group you need to modify the PARTIAL.INF file.

For example, the Terra Flora administrator creates a new program group called TerraFlora in which the TERRA.HLP file, Terra Flora Help, will be included. To do this, the administrator adds lines to the [ProgmanGroups] and [ProgmanGroupsDescriptionENG] sections of the PARTIAL.INF file. In the following example, the new lines are shown at the bottom of each section:

[ProgmanGroups]
    Main
    Accessories
    AdminTools
    Games
    Startup
    TerraFlora

[ProgmanGroupsDescriptionENG]
    Main            = "Main"
    Accessories     = "Accessories"
    Games           = "Games"
    Startup         = "Startup"
    AdminTools      = "Administrative Tools"
    TerraFlora        = "Terra Flora Help"
