Desktidy1.6.5.0

While you may argue that app launchers are obsolete, the truth is that they provide several advantages over the taskbar and Start menu. In addition to aiding you to maintain a clean desktop, they also make it more convenient to access files or applications.Desktidy is a small launcher tool that enables you to add the files, directories and applications you are using on a daily basis in a drop-down menu so that you can access them quicker.

Works with a wide variety of files as well as programs

The tool does not have an interface per se, but rather it is designed as an icon from which you can access various items. Functionality-wise, the utility is as simple as it gets and consequentially, does not have an advanced Options menu or customization features. On a side note, you can change the font's style, size or color using the options available with Windows.Nevertheless, the app is fairly easy to use and it is unlikely to give you any trouble. You can add a file or application with a simple drag and drop over the icon. Before the item is added, you can preview a small window with the path and you can include any caption you prefer so that you can recognize it easier.

An intuitive launcher that helps maintain your desktop clutter-free

On the downside, the tool is solely designed to add shortcuts to the files you are using regularly and does not pack extra elements such as to-do, calendars or a search function, for instance. Therefore, if you need a more complex solution with extended functionality – other than quick launching or accessing programs and files – then this may not be the right tool for you.In the eventuality that you are not satisfied with the Windows designed and are looking for a solution to keep your desktop clean and uncluttered, then perhaps you can consider giving Desktidy a try.
