I use this app a lot every day. With the Apple Menu crippled as an application launcher I use You Control's "File System" module to create an organized file list that allows me to navigate through all of my folders -- just like the original Apple Menu. I also use the clock / calendar module to show both date and time at a glance, something that apparently was beyond the capabilities of Apple's programmers. The Mail module allows me to quickly scan my email inbox without bringing Mail to the front. Overall, one of my favorite programs.

Installed, launched, worked fine for a couple of hours, hung opening a menu, force-quit engine, now engine will not load at all. This update isn't ready yet.
Kudos to the company who picked this up for continuing what is a fine product, but gotta get it up and crystal solid or it's effort wasted guys.

YouControl has certainly improved and many bugs have been fixed. Finally it's usable for me, and again it's part of my login items. I don't use the News Reader and Stocks modules.
With the modules I'm using, it works fine under 10.4.11, Dual G5 PPC 2GHz.
I don't understand your comment, Groucho6:

As far as I can tell the product is a You Software product. Hasn't this been the case for the past 4 years?

Why so many updates and no real new improvements - Version: 1.6 b6, 1/6/2008 08:38AM PST

Well, it's a nice piece of software but so many updates for so long and no real addon's. I wish they listen to the customers and start adding on more modules.
A bit expensive at this point in time.

It was improving - Version: 1.6 b3, 11/29/2007 10:12AM PST

I began using YC again recently. Things were working fine except for this new version 1.6 b3. YC will not launch or draw the menu bar items.
Back to 1.5.1, but I have to say that the software has improved. Of course, there was a lot of room for improvement.

I think it coul substitute dock
I've been using You Control for a couple of years now. I find that, although it does use quite a bit of system resources, it doesn't seem to really affect my computer's performance. It's been stable, and easy to work with.
The modules are REALLY helpful. I use the Pasteboard and Hotkeys the most, but the navigation features, the calendar and address book, processes, monitoring - great to have in one convenient program. I don't use the RSS features, because long ago, I found it seemed to slow the system down some, and took up bandwidth. Otherwise, I've really found this to be a great investment.
