Automatic configuration backup when i leave Symenu

Hello,
We use Symenu in portable mode on the network for technicians to have a quick access to our tools. SyMenu is perfect for that! We are 3 administrators who can modify the menu items and we know that we must reload Symenu before making any changes. But I'm the only one who can make configuration changes. The problem is that if I make a configuration change and backup, it will be replaced by the next user who will exit SyMenu because SyMenu automatically saves the configuration when it is closed. My question is this: How do you prevent SyMenu from saving its config when you leave it? Thank you in advance!

Thanks for your quick reply,  it was the option I had considered but the network manager did not like the idea. He preferred that the program itself handle this problem. I will ask him to restrict the rights of the config file as you suggest. I will keep you informed if it works or not.
Thanks again for your quick reply. By the way, you do a great job with SyMenu!

Managing shortcuts in SyMenu.

Hello, here is a suggestion for SyMenu.
I use a lot of the shortcuts I associate with items, which makes it possible to call them quickly. The problem is that I am not able to see all the shortcuts that are used to not use the same. There should be an alert that appears when you want to associate a shortcut to an Item but that shortcut is already used by another item.
Also, it would be interesting to have an option to see the list of shortcuts that are used and the programs associated with them.
I have programmed a program that reads the SyMenuItem.zip file and extracts the shortcuts and displays it in a window with the program associated with it.
Thank you for your good work with SyMenu, we appreciate it very much! |

My suggestion: try using the Windows security. As I told you the file to protect is Config\SyMenuConfig.zip. Disable the write permission for the other two admins. The program should not complain and, just in case, I can fix the behavior.
Let me know if this solution is suitable for you.
Hello,
unfortunately the solution is not suitable because if I put the SyMenuConfig.zip file read-only for the other administrators of the menu items, they can no longer enter the management of the menu items that is actually part of the configuration. The message "This function is not available because the Symenu directory is read-only".
I come back with the same problem.
Thank you in advance!
Merci d'avance! |
