Installation

MMM_Free_Installer

No Adware, No Spyware, No Nag Screens :)

Limited Functionality :(

Context Menu

On Right Clicking on the Desktop or in Windows Explorer MMM Free changes the context menu to look like this:

MMM_Free_Desktop

This is the same as the standard context menu except for the colored flash to the left side and the round “button” at the top of this flash which opens the:

Configuration menu

MMM_Free_Desktop_Config

As you can see this is a split pane view comprising:

  1. Top Left – The existing Context Menu Items
  2. Top Right – The Submenu Folders available to drag & drop existing items into
  3. Bottom – Useful Help details etc. which change according to what is selected

Options

Clicking on the Options button on the toolbar displays the options in the bottom part of the window

MMM_Free_Desktop_Config_Options

Clicking on an Option item gives details on that item, for instance Smart Menu gives these details:

MMM_Free_Desktop_Config_Options_Smart_Menu

Example of Changed Desktop Context Menu

This example is based on the changes made in the Options screenshot above where the ATI Catalyst item has been “dragged & dropped” into the Rarely used sub-menu folder so it no longer appears at the top of the context menu:

MMM_Free_Desktop_Changed

This should be compared to the first screenshot of the context menu at the start of this page

Note – The colored flash to the left of the context menu changes periodically.

Example of Explorer Context Menu

Before:

MMM_Free_Explorer

Configuration:

MMM_Free_Explorer_Config_Options

After:

MMM_Free_Explorer_Changed

MMM Free Context Menu

Right clicking in the MMM Free Configuration screen shows the following context menu (You can’t change this!)

MMM_Free_Right_Click_Menu

As you can see you can

  1. Check for update
  2. Save Menu as registry file
  3. Shutdown MMM

All useful options.

If you shutdown MMM you can restart by going to the Windows Start menu:

MMM_Free_Start_Menu

and choosing MMM – Configure Menu
