In depth
A closer look at Shortcuts Manager
Shortcut Manager is an ActiveX object that can be implemented into software projects by developers who want to facilitate shortcut management features to end users.The library provides options for organizing the items from the Start Menu, Send To.. menu, Quick Launch bar, and other areas. It has an error handling module, too.In addition to the source code, the downloaded package includes a demo that shows what you can do with the ActiveX library. This demo is wrapped in a plain and simple interface, made from just one window that displays all options in plain sight.It autodetects all supported shortcuts at startup, putting them in a list. Next to the program name are the shortcut description, executable path, arguments (if any), shortcut root and path, along with the time when it was last accessed.As far as actions are concerned, it's possible to refresh the list, delete the selected shortcuts, and choose the deletion method between sending the shortcut to the recycle bin and permanently removing it from the hard disk.You should keep in mind that the ActiveX library is not free to use, and the unregistered version doesn't provide the source code but only the demo. Unfortunately, this library is old and discontinued, so it will not receive any further updates and it also cannot be purchased anymore.
