Product Description:

NextSTART, by Winstep Software Technologies, skinnable, and dynamic pop-up menu that can be used as a replacement or supplement to the Windows Start Menu and taskbar. NextStart also offers flexibility so that the user can customize it to his needs and desires. NextStart does NOT require you to re-enter the paths to all the programs listed on your Start Menu. NextStart will automatically read the directory structure of your Programs folder(s) and create a menu for you on the fly! Thanks to NextStart's dynamic menu support, it will create as many menus as you wish based on any hard drive or directory! NextSTART features built-in task management to control running apps and the Windows System Tray. Gain access to your running apps via handy task icons/tiles right on your desktop. Best of all, you can choose the position of the "task list", the style, and even which icons should be displayed for specific applications. NS also allows you to place the Systray anywhere on your desktop!

interface enhancement for windows bar none. Not only a pretty face, it offers so much more functionality than the startmenu and taskbar. Simply superb :)
