Great little application. I wish they will keep it around with updates to improve stability a bid ...

Absolutely excellent app!!
I used to use MaxMenus but this is enormously better in every way.
Well worth the money.
Thanks... keep up the great work.

Overall rating is supposed to be 5.

Used this for years. Every time I think "I'd like a menubar utility that does that ..." I open the You Control configuration and voilà - You Control can do that. Saved me much money from avoiding buying other apps and cluttering the menu bar.

I too have been using this handy utility for years. Allows me to custom the menus the way. I use it for quick access to Calendar Items, Address Book, Apps, files, weather. I deducted a half star for a slightly awkward cp interface

I've used this for years and love it, I hate being on a computer without it. I don't change to fit the way it works, it changes to fit me.

Has to be the best of all the Launchers file access menu tree app out there very solid even the .8x beta is solid it may cost a little but it combines all the features of many other utilities combined you use only the bits you need. I just use the file assess and the weather modules there are many more.

I have mine set in the bottom left corner pop up of the structure of the disk and home folder etc fast access to anything.

I also use Bevy triggered with a button on the mouse for really instant app access.

I have used this utility for five years.
It has always worked very well.
Zero system slowdown.
I would buy it again if I had to.

I purchased You Control when I first purchased my PPC G5 years ago. It has so many features, that it took me awhile figure out what I wanted to use. Eventually I added ALL the features. One time, on an update the developer missed one small feature. I emailed them & they said it would be back on the next update & it was! I've never had any problems!!! I also have You Control Desktops, which is GREAT. You could set a different picture for each desktop so you could visually know where you are at. Years ahead of Leopard's "Spaces" which does not have this option. I give it 5 STARS.

I had ditched you control after I switched computers but eventually it came to mind and I gave it another shot. The program never gives problems, only thing I can complain about is the spinning beach ball when navigating through the menu's. Beach ball Doesn't slow anything down just don't know why it appears at all. Even allows me to click something else while it's still the "beach ball."

It's stability, small footprint, and ridiculous amount of options/menus it is definitely worth giving a shot. You will be very surprised. Great app and becomes more stable with each update.

Yes, both You Control and You Control Desktops are crashing on me in 10.5.7 , 10 seconds or so after launching.
