No Start Menu created during installation
On Vista Ultimate SP1 I installed FireFox 4.0 and choose for custom installation. Under 'Create Icons for FireFox' I only disabled 'On my Desktop'. The other two options where marked.
The icon in the Quick Launch bar is created but there is no Start Menu folder?

Did you previously had Firefox installed?
The Firefox 4 RC version is a regular release and will replace the current Firefox entry in the Start menu even if you do a custom install (haven't tested this, so I might be wrong). You can easily create a new entry in the Start menu yourself if it is missing by dragging the desktop icon to the start menu or by using Windows Explorer to create a folder structure in "C:\Users\All Users\Start Menu\Programs\Mozilla Firefox" if that folder is missing.

Firefox 4.0 doesn't need a "folder" in the Start menu, Firefox (SafeMode) was removed from Firefox 4.0 - so there is only one Start menu item now. If that one menu item is missing, you can create it yourself using cor-el's instructions. I haven't tested the installer versions of the Beta's or the RC's, as I use the Nightly build zip-archive versions.
1.You can open the Firefox 4.0 SafeMode by holding the Shft key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
2. Or use the Help menu item, click on Restart with Add-ons Disabled... while Firefox is running.
