Hi!
I'm seeing some Discontinued Applications, like SysInternals Suite, Handbrake, and some others.
Handbrake for example is very useful.
Is there a reason to discontinue the distribution of these applications?
Thanks |

Hi!
Ok, i understand that. But is easier for the SyMenu user to update the applications using the update feature than have to download and uncompress the zip file.
This is one of the Main reasons that i use SyMenu.
Some applications have the portable version but using the auto update from SyMenu is much easier.
I think you should consider that.
The SysInternals has lots of small applications/utilities like NirSoft and having them on another tab would have a better organization, i think. If they are all mixed up with all other bigger applications they are a little lost. And some are even for the command line.
These are just my opinions as a user, that i would like to contribute to the project.
Thanks

NOTE: Some background of my use:
I used to have a menu called PStart, and i was always looking for portable apps in the www.portablefreeware.com to create all my applications and organization of portable apps, but it's some time consuming when we need to update.
I'm using portable apps for more than 15 years, and using apps like SyMenu and PortableApps.com it's great because it's very easy to update and to find new portable applications and solutions very fast.
I almost install nothing on my computer and use all the free portable apps i encounter. And every time i need a new app i find free and portable solutions for my needs.
Not depending of a computer is great.  |

????? If we decide to switch from an application to the corresponding portable version the reason is only to grant you the maximum portability.
You're right, i didn't saw that you had "Handbrake Portable" available. That is really better to have the original portable version than the other.
Great, Thanks. |

Request menu navigation

Hi,
When I'm using the menu Search and i type something to search, then in the list of found items, if have to move the mouse right to the side of that menu and then down to the app i want.
If i move the mouse on a diagonal, the menu disappears because the other menu below the Search is activated.
So, in my opinion it should have some time before activating other menus...
Like 300 milliseconds before any menu/sub-menu is shown.
I think this could prevent other menus from being immediately activated and the Search menu disappearing.
I don't know if I'm explaining well the behavior.
I'm sending some photos.
Maybe someone else is have the same problem, but this is very annoying because the menu search is very useful, but not practical because is always disappearing or i have to be very careful in moving the mouse or if i pass through another menu it disappears immediately.
This should be fixed to help working faster using the search menu.
Thanks
Note: Hope this can help in the development of Symenu. |

Hi,
Thanks, that could be a solution.
What I'm doing now is to click on the menu going to the search option and then after typing, i just use the arrow key down to the app i need and press Enter.
I didn't think about using a shortcut because i work a lot with more than one computer at the same time, so I'm always using remote access to work with my other computers and all have SyMenu with the same shortcut, so i don't know on what pc the menu is being called.
But i can always have different shortcuts for different computers.... I'll give it a try.
Thanks. |
