RecentX

Launch Any Document, Folder, Website... Fast!

RecentX
Tools & Utilities

Imagine being able to snap your fingers and instantly launch any file, folder, program, or website on your computer system! No more navigating through level after level of hierarchical folders, no more hunting for an executable file stashed in some poorly-named directory. Get whatever you want, whenever you want it!

Is this some sort of mystical utopian operating system? No, it's RecentX!

RecentX can launch any file, folder, program, or website on your computer in just 3 steps and in less than 3 seconds! No more program menus, no more cluttered desktop shortcuts, and no more unorganized bookmarks. Just type and launch! It'll even work on shared network drives!

There's no need to even configure RecentX -- just install the app and go about your business. RecentX automatically tracks and lists items which are frequently accessed, created, and modified, enabling it to learn which items are most important to you, and hiding everything else.

With RecentX, you can even use tags to group multiple items from different folders together, enabling you to access all of them with a single click! Plus, an integrated file manager lets you perform common operations such as copy, move, delete, and rename without opening a separate file manager.

Work faster and more efficiently today, and launch yourself into a new era of efficiency with RecentX!

Written by Derek Lee

Key Features:

  • Launch any file or folder on your computer! Preference is given to recent files & folders so that you can access them even faster.
  • No configuration necessary: RecentX automatically tracks and lists items that are frequently accessed, created, and modified.
  • Keep track of items that are several months old.
  • Helps avoid frequent use of file manager: RecentX allows you to quickly perform common file operations without using a file manager like Windows Explorer.
  • Integrated Program Launcher: RecentX lets you launch documents and applications without browsing the Windows Start menu or My Recent Documents list.
  • Launch file instantly as you type the keywords!
  • Remote Access: RecentX allows you to directly access recently-used files and folders from remote computers.
  • Drag and Drop: RecentX accepts files and folders dragged and dropped from almost any program.
  • Consumes very little processing power and memory. Fast startup doesn't slow down Windows' loading time!
  • Tags & Smart Tags let you tag different files/folders/programs/websites so that you can group them for faster access.
  • Designate a separate hotkey for each category (Files, Folders, Programs & Websites) for even faster access.

    I have bought and upgraded twice...excellent product and attentive developers. Will there be an upgrade discount offer for 3.0 users?

    Is there a way to make the RecentX window still visible when/after right-clicking an action? I have tried the Auto Hide settings, but either the window vanishes, or it stays in the foreground, covering what I just called.

    I couldn't find a version history, so I doubt this issue was changed from last time. RecentX works by hijacking some of the tracking that Windows does, making itself look better and Windows worse. Much of what RecentX does is already available in Vista and higher, and AnVir Task Manager does much the same without crippling Windows.

    Thanks Gail, Peter, Frank & S C.

    @Gail, we are offering version 3.0 again. we will ask BDJ to remove (New Version) from the title.

    @Peter, the RecentX window will stay visible if you disable 'Auto Hide'. In order to keep the window on foreground, you will also need to check the 'Stay on Top' option which can be enabled by clicking on the little down arrow next to the green pin (Auto Hide)

    @Frank, we replied to you in our last promotion. You can read the last comment on this page: http://www.bitsdujour.com/software/recentx .

    Thanks.

    I'm disappointed from V3. The website tab stores only a limited amount of adresses. For a better finding it was preferable to see the favicons. And at the end it's working more slowly than V2

    Hello John,

    By default, RecentX 3.0 shows only essential websites. Meaning, it hides many trivial URLs that we hardly search for. This is done to improve performance.

    However, RecentX 3.0 provides an option to list 'All' urls also.

    It would be better if you be specific about what part of RecentX 3.0 is slow. I suggest that you send a separate email about this to support [at] conceptworld [dot] com

    Thanks.

    Regards,
    Gautam Jain

    Yes, I confirm that ver. 3 is working more slowly than V2.
    I wrote it last time but Conceptworld sayz that I have slow machine or sth like this. It happens when click on icon after some time of inactivity. Next time the window appears fast.
    I'd like to say all 3 progz from Conceptworld are great and I'm registered user.

    Hello Jerzy,

    Thanks for your appreciation about our products. We are happy to have you.

    Referring to our conversation during last BDJ promotion (http://www.bitsdujour.com/software/recentx), we responded as below (and not regarding slow machine):

    ******
    "Jerzy, you may be using an older build of RecentX 3.0. We have improved the performance in the recent build (Build 6). Please download the latest from our website"
    ******

    Our conversation is at the URL: http://www.bitsdujour.com/software/recentx

    Thanks.

    Yes, indeed. But nothing has changed. I always use latest build (now 8) and the problem exists. But only on notebooks (I used IBM Thinkpad R60 with intel core2duo 5500 and now I use Lenovo sl510 with intel core2duo 5870 and 4 GB RAM, Windows XP on old machine and windows 7 now). It doesn't happens on my computer with intel E8400 processor and 8GB of RAM (windows 7 64bit).
