LaunchDock0.6.0.0

LaunchDock is a lightweight software application developed specifically for helping you launch programs with ease from a minimalist environment. It can be deployed on all Windows versions out there. In order to run the tool correctly and avoid bumping into all sorts of compatibility issues and errors, you need to have Microsoft .NET Framework deployed on the target computer.

Clean and simple design

After a fast and simple installation process where you only need to follow the preset steps in order to complete the process, you are welcomed by a straightforward and small layout. A help manual is not available, but you can manage to set up the dedicated parameters on your own because they look highly intuitive.

Run tools with ease

LaunchDock gives you the possibility to make use of a multi-tabbed environment. You can assign a user-defined name to each tab. In addition, you are allowed to rename or delete tabs. Each tab gives you quick access to nine buttons which can be configured so you can quickly open various utilities.Other important configuration settings worth being mentioned enable you to run the application at Windows startup, keep the main window on top of other panels, adjust the transparency of the primary panel, as well as change the looks of the GUI by modifying the background color.Tests have pointed out that LaunchDock carries out tasks quickly. It is not a resource hog so you may keep it running in the background without having to worry that it hampers the overall performance of the computer. On the downside, it has not been updated for a long time so you may come across all sorts of compatibility issues and errors on newer operating systems like Windows 10 and 8.
