Porta’Menu Launches Programs From Your USB Drive

By Jason Fitzpatrick on January 5, 2009 at 11:30 PM

Windows only: Porta’Menu is a tiny (175k!) application launcher for your portable drives. It is extremely spartan, but effective. Add your applications, it remember the relative path and from there on you only have to launch the application launcher when you insert your flash drive instead of digging through the application directories. The interface is very reminiscent of earlier lower resolution versions of windows, and if you read the readme.txt you’ll find out why. The author found that an ancient program he’d written to launch applications back in the days before start menus worked perfectly as a relative-path application manager for portable drives. Porta’menu is freeware, Windows only.
