Free Tool to Index Programs in your Start Menu July 2, 2006
Posted by microsoftwordtips in Misc, design.add a comment
Josh Karlin has released a great new (and FREE) program that indexes the programs in your start menu and can launch your documents, project files, folders, and bookmarks with just a few keystrokes!
Launchy indexes files in locations other than your start menu.
Here are some tips that we use and recommend.
Index your Bookmarks & Folders
-
- Directory: C:\Documents and Settings\user\Favorites
- File Type: .url
- Index your Music
- Directory: My Documents
- File Types: .mp3 .aac .ogg
- Index your Pictures
- Directory: My Documents
- File Types: .jpg .gif .bmp
- Index your Documents
- Directory: My Documents
- File Types: .doc .pdf .xls .ppt
- Index custom Commands
- Directory: Your Custom Folder
- File Types: .exe .bat .lnk
Once Launchy has been started, it hides in the background. You bring it forward by holding the alt key and tapping the space key. You then type in a few keys of the program you are searching for and hit enter once it has been found. You can also make Launchy dissappear again by hitting escape or alt+space.
