Pros
Brings everything to one place ... after you set it up.
Cons
Keybreeze will work much better and easier. Try it too and delete the one you don't like.
Summary
Flawed, but otherwise the best

Pros
The best way to use this menu is to create a few folders on your hard drive...say programs, games, and utilities. Fill these folders with shortcuts. Create as many columns as folders, and drag and drop all the shortcuts to their specific columns. BE SURE to drop them on the BOTTOM row for each column, because it will flaw if you do not.
Cons
Displays too much detail about certain products making very large columns. simple fix, go into options, and change the display names. Also, if you force quit it, your INI file will currupt, and you will lose the menu. remember those folders? Keep them around for a quick remake of the menus.

Pros
Brilliant. Very handy when windows explorer crashes in the middle of a huge batch programming job or some heavy activity - HIDDEN MENU DOESN'T CRASH- so you can work. Go ahead and download it right away. <p>the menu pops up when you move the mouse to the edges of the screen. you can put any and every shortcut to any and every type of program/document in the menu and all you have to do to invoke the menu is move the mouse to the edge of your screen. Just 2 minutes of configuration is required.
Cons
none

Great Launcher!

Summary
I don't understand some of the bad comments on this software. It does what is advertised. It is a great hidden launcher that pops right up when you put your mouse in certain parts of the screen that you determine (i.e. bottom right corner) It doesn't take up toolbar or desktop space. It's a great little utility. Don't give it bad marks just because it doesn't do everything "pie in the sky" that you want it to. I like it and use it everyday. 2 Thumbs up!
Not the best, not the worst...

Summary
Hidden Menu works OK, but it is quite unattractive, and does not support nested menus. In addition, configuring it is a real pain--a HUGE pain. It support the drag-and-drop of individual shortcuts, but I've seen it import the shortcuts incorrectly. And God help you if you want to add a row or column. You will end up clicking around forever, and moving EVERY SINGLE menu item around by hand. Ridiculous.
Auto Hide Program/Document Launcher

Pros
Cons
Summary
Needed a fast program/document/website launcher that did not take up screen space. I do not like the "favorites" button on IE browser as it takes up space, does not auto hide correctly and and is less convenient.
Great!

Summary
The Hidden Menu has three 'great' features- 1)After installation, you won't see the program. (it hides hence the name) 2) It comes with an installer that does NOT uninstall. 3) It messes up Windows registry proper. Enjoy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
