Let me start off by saying i love classic shell. I can't find the answer in the forums, but is there a way to hide the following folders via GPO? I am currently using the ClassicShell GPO in tandem with our default GPOs. They folders are empty, but I'd like to hide them. Thanks!

You can just set the Hidden attribute on these folders from their Properties or using attrib.exe -h. All items with hidden attribute are not shown in the Classic Start Menu.

You may have to do this twice: one for these folders in C:\Users\<YOUR USER ACCOUNT>\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs and again for the All Users copy of these folders in C:\ProgramData\Microsoft\Windows\Start Menu\Programs
