Okay I can add in some selected categories to choose from. What I need is your recomendations of what categories you would like in there by default.

I have already added in:

Applications

System

Office

Games

Yes you will still be able to pick a custom category but I will add in like 10 - 12 pre-set options.

Broad categories may be best: "Accessories," Utilities," Media Players," etc. My WPI has 57 entries divided among nine (9) broad categories.

@kel: you're missing PowerToys, Internet, Registry Tweaks, Microsoft Xtras, Visual Styles. Wich are all in there allready

I've Added the following for my UADVD:

CD/DVD Tools

Multimedia

Compression

Security

I just got the idea to check some download sites to see the category's they use and came up with:

Development & Web Authoring

Desktop Enhancements

Business

Design tools

Home and education

Network management

Drivers (for those who don't use the driverpacks)

After some testing I want to narrow it down to 6 BROAD categories and I will tell the secret of what to do to add in more of your own.

Just another idea, what about sub-categories?

like this:

System

| System Extras

| Themes/Application Skinning

| Benchmark/Hardware info

| ...

After some testing I want to narrow it down to 6 BROAD categories and I will tell the secret of what to do to add in more of your own.

For me, I use just 3 cat's (but I begin to discover WPI too ... )

System (Windows Updates / OEM infos + wallpapers / .NET / XML / Java)

Stuff (in french 'Divers' ) (MSN / WMP / HighMAT / MediaConnect / JournalViewer ...)

Applications ( Nero / PowerDVD / 7-Zip / Acrobat Reader / Spybots / avast! / ..)

It's okay for me, sub-cats are interesting but useless for me.

Continu dev of WPI ! Great soft !
