CLaunch

Desktop icons pile up, the Start menu keeps getting longer, and the dozen apps you use every day still take a hunt each time.
CLaunch parks a paged grid panel on the edge of the screen. Touch it with the mouse or press a hotkey and it pops up with your programs, folders and URLs laid out as tiles. Click one to launch, and the panel tucks itself away - no taskbar clutter.

Adding things is drag and drop, and tiles can be split across pages and grouped by purpose. Each item can carry launch parameters and its own hotkey. The program is tiny and portable, so moving to a new machine means copying one folder.

Features

Paged grid panel: programs, folders and URLs sit in tiles, organised by page, one click to launch.

Drag-and-drop adding: drop a file or shortcut onto the panel and it is added, with no path typing.

Hotkeys and parameters: every item can have launch arguments and its own hotkey, and the panel itself can be summoned by hotkey.

Skins and transparency: several bundled skins and adjustable transparency.

Portable use: small, no installer needed, and settings travel with the folder.
