Is there any way that I can get all the folders from All Users Program file
out of my program file. I only want the programs that I installed not
everyone else's that are using this computer.

You could copy the shortcuts for various programs from All User's into the
start menu folders of individual users. If doing this, I would leave the
default start menu folders structure under All Users intact and also leave
the default Windows shortcuts for this location.

This approach (or any others that you choose) will be a matter of ongoing
maintenance. Many programs dump their shortcuts into the All Users folder
without asking. Check folders after any new program install or any program
update. Follow up with the process of redistributing the shortcuts to the
various user folders as necessary.

Another approach: Create a folder. Place shortcuts for your programs into
it. At this point you could display the folder as a toolbar (right click
taskbar, choose Toolbars> New Toolbar) or copy it to your start menu. A
little messier than the other suggestion but wouldn't disrupt anyone else's
start menu.
