Shell and Desktop - Shell Enhancements

H-Menu 5.0

H-Menu is a fully configurable launcher, yet it remains invisible until activated with the mouse. Have everything you need just a click away and say goodbye to the START button and a cluttered Desktop. Animated Toolbars appear on contact with the screen’s edge, up to two per side. H-Menu also supports the use of Cascading Menus and Multimedia capabilities. Screen settings can be changed as you launch programs, or use the tray icon, where you can also access Menu-bars, Dial-Up connections, Sound controls, End Windows Session, Change Screen with a single click. Customise H-Menu with animation effects and Separators to group items together. The number of Buttons per Bar and their size can be configured and you can use your own bitmaps as backgrounds. Also you can create many sets of Buttonbars under different user names and groups, then navigate between them with links on each of the Buttonbar groups. Try H-Menu and you will be surprised at the improvement it makes to using Windows. Multi-lingual! You can even create your own Language Module.

Pathbuddy v.1.0

Pathbuddy lets you define hotkeys for selecting folders in almost any program's Open & Save dialog (as well as Windows Explorer). Normally, when you open a Save dialog, you need to navigate to the folder that you want to use, which can often be annoying. Pathbuddy allows you to switch the dialog to any of your favorite folders instantly, by simply pressing the WinKey + a custom letter/number. So for example, if I wanted to save a file in C:\Testfiles\stuff\etc\ - I could just press WinKey+W on my keyboard to switch the dialog to that folder. If you don't want to remember all your shortcuts, you can press WinKey+A at any time to bring up a list that allows you to simply select the folder.
