The Little Launcher0.2.0

The time it takes to open files or programs on your computer mostly depends on how fast you can find them. There are various methods of launching frequently used programs, with a Windows built-in Run tool for specific tasks. In this regard, The Little Launcher comes as a lightweight alternative to run anything on your PC.

Can be used on the go

On the bright side of things, you don’t have to go through a setup process to make the application work, so it’s good to go from the moment download is done. Moreover, you can store it on a thumb drive to always have your personal method of running programs at hand. Registry entries are not affected in the process, so there’s no need to worry about the target system’s health status.Note that the application automatically closes once it runs the specified program. Unfortunately, there’s no associated tray icon to quickly launch it again, but this can be bypassed by assigning a hotkey command to the program’s shortcut to launch it regardless of your location.

A poor alternative to the Run tool

Running it might leave you scratching your head for a while. However, typing eliminates all confusion, with different suggestions shown in an auto-expanding drop-down menu. This helps a lot to identify specific files on your computer.In fact, the application is nothing more than a refined alternative to the Windows Run tool. It functions in a pretty similar manner, with no option to add bookmarks, but entries are saved and shown later on in the suggestion drop-down menu. Arguments are also supported in case the target app requires more than just a simple double-click to function.

On an ending note

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that The Little Launcher might not be exactly the type of application you’re looking for, at least if you want to keep the desktop a clean space. Some issues might be encountered when trying to reach particular folders, and there’s great deal of enhancements brought to general computer navigation.
