PStart for Windows 10 - Full description

PStart is a lightweight application launcher for organizing and opening programs, documents, and folders from a central menu. It is useful for people who want quick access to frequently used software on a Windows PC, as well as for users who carry portable applications on a USB drive or other removable media.

The launcher stores user-defined entries in a menu accessible from the system tray. Add the programs and files that matter, then start them from the menu instead of browsing through folders or shortcuts. When installed on a computer, PStart can serve as an additional start menu and includes a quick program search feature for finding entries.

PStart can also be installed on removable storage to provide a portable menu for compatible applications. In portable mode it uses relative paths, so entries can continue to point to files on the same device even when Windows assigns that device a different drive letter on another computer. The same approach can be useful for content launched from removable disks, including CDs whose drive letter may vary.

A portable menu can bring together applications, important documents, and folders in one place. It suits users who move between computers, keep work tools on a USB stick, or want a compact launcher for software stored on removable media. It can also organize commonly used items on a local PC without replacing the standard Windows Start menu.

PStart is freeware from PEGTOP Software. The installer offers a choice of local or removable-device installation, and the program is intended for Windows. Applications launched from removable storage must themselves be able to run in that environment; PStart's relative paths help locate files but do not make otherwise non-portable software portable.
