You might want to add the path to the exe

  1. Download the ZIP → from here
  2. Extract it anywhere → Example: C:\QuickLaunchRebel
  3. Create a shortcut in the Startup Folder so that it starts automatically system boot. Press the Windows Key + "R" Key on your Keybord and type without quotes "shell:startup". there you go.
  4. Run QuickLaunchTray.exe → It lives quietly in your system tray. Executable located: QuickLaunch.code.fully.working\QuickLaunch code\bin\Release\net8.0-windows\
  5. Add shortcuts → Right-click desktop → New → Shortcut → Move .lnk, .url, or .exe files into the Shortcuts folder.
  6. Customize theme (optional) → Select Theme
  7. Done. → Click tray icon → Launch your stuff.
And that they may have to install .NET (Which is where I bailed)

Does it support multi monitors? 6 to be exact.

.NET is necessary to run many applications. They require it and the Desktop Runtime is supported by Microsoft.

I realise that, Norman, I was suggesting clarity in the information.

Not sure who the author is, but I've just downloaded quicklaunch rebel which I quite like - apart from one thing. Why can I not use the left mouse button to bring up my list of items? Why does it have to be the right mouse button?

Cheers

Alan

There is a bug in the desktop runtime
So, until Microsoft fixes it, it remains right mouse click
it's not what you hoped for hearing, but trust me, I don't like it neither
