ViStart
|
ViStart is a perfect start menu replacement for Windows XP. ViStart will now index all personal files and software files and give *ACTUAL instant results* thats 4 times faster then the real Vista start menu.
Features:
1. Launch Programs faster then ever before
ViStart dramatically decreases the time taken to search for programs by indexing your software shortcuts. Then you can simply type part of the software into the start menu and ViStart will "instantly" find it.
2. Find files faster then Vista
ViStart not only indexes programs but also files as well. Just type the file you are looking for and in miliseconds ViStart will return results (Up to 4 times faster then the orignal Vista start menu!).
3. Microsoft Vista skin
ViStart includes a skin that looks exactly like the Windows Vista's start menu and it also supports 3rd party skins. A wide range of skins made by ViStart fans are available through deviantart.
4. Fading Menu Icons
As you roll over each option on the menu ViStart will blend each option just like Vista's icons.
5. Multilanguage support
ViStart supports natively English, Japanese, German, French, Italian, Russian, Korean, Chinese and Dutch.
ViStart7 -Windows 7 Start Menu for Vista and XP
From Author: ViStart Series 7 ? Take a look at the screen shot. Can you tell me what operating system that is ? ViStart is fixed for the most part.. but i am not stopping there. As you can see in the screen shot. This is the new Windows 7 theme I have made by combining Lucifiar's work and FediaFedia's work. With Beta 6 of ViStart this theme would usually be impossible to make. Elements before now could not be changed by the theme author. Now ViStart elements can be customized via a "Layout/Theme" XML file that is placed in the Resources folder. This will allow components of the start menu to be moved and resized by the theme author. (This was one of the hidden experimental features available in older versions of BETA 6 and BETA 5. Not available in the VTP Versions). I will also be ensuring ViStart 7 is backward compatible with Vista 6 skins.
Final Update (16/11/2009) - ViStart 7 Released!
Well, The product that launched Lee-Soft in Spring 2007 has been reprogrammed almost totally, and it's faster, more stable, more customizable, lighter and cuter than ever before. With a brand new Windows 7 interface. Is it ViStart and ViGlance or Windows 7? The build was actually finished a few days ago but i spent a few more days ensuring complete backward compatibility with ViStart 6 skins. I am still looking at adding blur for the next release of ViStart, but it may affect performance so i am leaving it out of this release. Finally a release of ViStart that i can call stable. I spent the last 4 months reviewing the ViStart bug threads in my forums. As well as digging up old bug reports from my inbox to bring this build of ViStart.
