I have found that if something has been installed to main memory and I want to move it without the hastle of reinstalling then go to the program files folder and cut and paste the program to where you want it, then find the program's file that runs the program inside the program's folder(usually the one with the icon resembling the program) , select copy and then go to the windows folder (in main memory) and go into start menu. This is the folder with the files for the start menu, so you can then go into programs and then paste a shortcut where you want it in the programs window and then delete the old shortcut for the program. This has always worked fine for me and if it doesn't work then it is easy to put everything back where it was.
