OK, thanks for clarifying. I'll just update my shortcut names when necessary. I've got so many tools in there now it's hard to find the right one sometimes!!

Hi timrray.

Thanks to you... the idea was totally yours

The description field was never indexed for the search. I avoid to include this field in the search to maintain it lighter as possible.
Well if a certain number of users will ask for that I could introduce this feature as an optionally ones.
Let me know.

The search is able to show or not the local programs with the usual checkbox.
The contextual menu instead has the new item Host programs that couldn't be disabled because SyMenu is now a sort of start menu replacer.

First, I have to say THANKS for including the computername filter. It's working exactly like I had hoped it would

2nd, I'd like to confirm something. In the past, when I searched in SyMenu, I thought I had been seeing results based on what is in the Description field, not just the program's name. Was this intentional? That was a very useful feature to me as I would put some keywords in the description so I could remember what the tool was for.

Also, I seem to be missing the ability to turn off showing the locally installed programs. Was there ever that option?
