POX added SyMenu as alternative to LaunchNext- TBayAreaPat commented on SyMenu
This is like a long-lost program I've been hoping to find again. First thing I notice is that it has an easy search sorta like the program Listary. Then it has a sort of easy Explorer, sign-up app manager, and configurable program access. I agree with kusarebaita, I like the simplicity of PStart.. particularly for adding files and folders.

What is SyMenu?
SyMenu is a portable menu launcher that allows to organize and find your portable applications in a quick and easy way.
Why should you use SyMenu?
- Ease of use: really! SyMenu is easy to learn but, at the same time, it gives you a deep complexity to explore if you want;
- Strong customization: you can organize all your applications in a hierarchical structure with custom names, descriptions, colorful folders, separators and labels;
- Large program suites: the Standard for Portable Software (SPS) allows to install, update and remove the programs available in the SyMenu suites automatically;
- Fully customizable menu: you can choose which built-in elements to add to your personal SyMenu;
- Portability means freedom: if you work in a strict controlled IT environment you won't need anymore to ask your IT administrator the permission to install that umpteenth useful program, do it with in the portable way;
- Portability means cleanliness: you know that Windows suffers for frequent programs installation and uninstallation. The portable programs don't need to be installed and your PC System folders and Registry will thank you;
- Search bar: (Windows like) it allows to quickly search amongst any SyItem configured on menu;
- Search bar wrapper for Windows: SyMenu exposes through its Search bar every program linked in the host PC Windows Start menu too;
- Extension Manager: it allows to temporarly replace the normal Windows extension associations with the SyMenu custom extension associations;
- Autoexec: it allows to launch a custom list of SyItems at SyMenu startup or closing;
- Execution modes: Run, RunAs, Open folder, Show Properties, Run as Admin, Configure item;
- Batch Import: it's really helpful to massive import of a new SyItem set;
- Plugin support: you can extend the SyMenu capabilities with one of its plugins or you can write something new by your own;
- Multilingual;
- Free of charge: and finally you don't have to pay for it!

Comments and Reviews
I have been using it since I was using XP... impossible to remember how many versions without it generating a single problem, I admit that I would prefer it to use less space in C:, or even better, for the host itself to be portable (I understand the difficulties that would entail, it's just an expression of wish) in any case it is the best solution that can be achieved for the ever-increasing lack of management of the start menu on Windows. Deeply customizable, it could only detract somewhat from the slightly dated aesthetics.
Virus Total online scan detects malware. Beware !
I'd take that with a grain of salt. Especially when it comes to utilities included such as NirSoft's tools. I allow them on my device and they've not given me any malware issues.

I used it for a while, I think it's OK but now I prefer the beautiful simplicity of PStart.
Bundled with 1,123 free portable apps ...
Doesn't work with extended monitors.
There's an overlay icon on the desktop that I can't remove.
Folders are either a menu or can be opened...they can't be both. Sometimes I want to traverse a folder path, sometimes I just want to open the folder.
I don't want the other menu options, just quick access to my folder or application.
