Spencerberus System Nucleus
http://www.spencerberus.com/projects.aspx

A powerful tool for viewing, editing and managing system resources &
settings, consolidating functionality that normally requires numerous
tools into a single interface designed to make these tasks easier than
ever. An emphasis has been placed on batch processing, filtering, and
easy visual identification of items using distinctive icons.

Want to stop 2 processes at once? You can do that. Need to uninstall 5
applications? You can do that too. Want to view the process
information for a running service, generate a detailed audit of a
machine's hardware, software & settings, optimize network performance,
and disable those annoying programs that start every time you login, all
from one tool? With System Nucleus, you can do all of that and much,
much more.

System Nucleus is freeware. This is, and will remain, a work in
progress, so check back often for new versions or subscribe to the
Spencerberus RSS Feed to be notified of new releases. Suggestions are
always welcome.

use & navigate interface. Includes QuickFix functionality for
addressing common concerns, such as resolving network connectivity
issues & optimizing performance. The Standard Mode provides easy access
to the most popular settings, while the Advanced Mode exposes a highly
granular view for precise tweaking.

Startup Manager - see everything that runs & loads when your computer is
started and when someone logs in. Delete those you don't need, disable
those you aren't sure about or don't want to load temporarily, and
enable items previously disabled.

Backup & Recovery - its always a good idea to backup your current
configuration before making changes just in case something goes wrong.
Backup your selection of registry hives, event logs, and drivers, or
create a System Restore Point. Is your computer not functioning
properly? Restore a previously created Restore Point to put your
computer's configuration back where it was before you started having
problems.

Windows Application Menu - shortcuts to over 100 applications & tools
included with Windows, many of which are not accessible via the Start
Menu. Automatically determines which programs are on your system and
displays only those shortcuts, organized into 5 categories:
Administrative Tools, Network, Security, System, and Diagnostic &
Repair.

System Tray Menu - optionally display an icon in the system tray that
provides quick access to numerous tools and applications, a Run command
prompt, system information, and environment settings, as well as the
main System Nucleus interface.

program info such as support links & contact details.

the Detail panel, with links to additional online resources. Dock the
Details on the left or right, set it to auto hide, and access it easily
from the right-click context menu.

Smart Run - store run commands between sessions, browse for executable,
integrated RunAs option with option to save usernames, and create your
own shortcut aliases to frequently entered commands. Always visible in
the main menu bar & system tray menu for quick, easy access.
Customizable, SetOnce Interface - select how much or how little
information is displayed, reorder & resize columns, apply filters &
sorting, choose what actions require confirmation, arrange & auto hide
panels, and never have to do it twice. Your customized interface is
maintained so next time you start System Nucleus it looks the same as
when it was closed.
