We like the idea of the Windows Quick Launch bar, and even -- on rare occasions -- find ourselves using it. But we're always struck with the vague, disconsolate feeling that it simply isn't reaching its full potential.
True Launch Bar is a vastly-superior replacement for the standard Quick Launch bar. Don't worry -- every Quick Launch function is also in True Launch Bar, and they share the same shortcut folder. However, True Launch Bar allows us to combine our shortcuts into groups and display them in convenient popup menus. Right off the bat it saves us space on our desktop and makes it a snap to launch our favorite applications.
True Launch Bar is extremely configurable. We love the "auto-popup menus on mouse hover" option, and the "large icon" option makes working at high screen resolutions much more comfortable. Creating a new menu is as simple as right-clicking on True Launch Bar, and you can designate hotkeys to launch applications.
Best of all, True Launch Bar supports plugins like Mail Monitor, Weather Forecast, Media Control, System Process Monitor, Color Picker, Voice Recorder, Calculator, and dozens more!
But don't take our word for it. Give True Launch Bar a try today and watch how quickly you ask yourself how you ever lived without it.

- “Small disk footprint, no detectable system drain, automatic setup, minimal learning curve, highly configurable, extremely stable, builds on what you already use, and has a low purchase cost. The bottom line is True Launch Bar is an indispensable add-on to Windows and adds the usability and functionality to the OS that should have been there in the first place. With just a few days worth of use, you'll wonder how you managed without it.”- Vance Hunt, www.dx21.com
- “The end result is a taskbar that is extremely functional and built just like you like it. I use it on all computers I use regularly and feel lost without the functionality it provides when I am using someone else's computer. That is the mark of a great utility in my book.”- James Kendrick, jkontherun.blogs.com
- “A typical computer user, when he becomes a bit «advanced» (which means, he uses applications beyond Word and Minesweeper), suffers a lot from the ineffective standard Windows environment (Desktop). Windows lacks Information on the system state, lacks Control over running processes, and lacks Tools in user's hands. To perform, view or change Something under Windows, we would need to do a lot of useless clicking, which is just as annoying as it is useless. You will hardly believe me, but I do know something that successfully solves most of these problems. The something is called True Launch Bar.”- www.3d2f.com
- “To grasp the real value of True Launch Bar, try working with it for some time. Then any system without it turns into a raging nightmare.”- Nick Harley, Canada
- “I want to tell you guys, your app is a killer!! I love it. Something that my company (MS) forgot to include in XP :) Worth every penny!!! Keep up the good work!”- Hack Lover, Italy
