Simple util that adds the option to send to files to the start menu.

Written in rust as a way to practice some rust, and build something that was bugging me for a while.

Is well known that windows search sucks. Rigth? Then why didnt I just grabbed one of the many well know programs that add improved search to windows? Cause why do the sensible thing when I can code my own half baked solution. Instead of having to manually add a new program that I want quick acess to the start menu. I can do it just a right click, and a left click.

Steps

• Build with cargo (optional)
• Double click exe, (It will create a shortcut of itself, and place it on %appdata%\Microsoft\Windows\SendTo)
• rename as desired (Default is Start Menu);
• The option will be avalible when right click file or folder(folder send to start menu does nothing)

TODO

• Simplify process
• add icon
• update cargo info
• add util that if runned stand alone, will create a shortcut of self, and send to SendTo
• do nothing if is folder
• switch off strings to paths
• add a sound if shortcut creation is a success or fails
• add some customization options
• plan further improvements
