Free Launch Bar
replacement for the Quick Launch bar
Our Rating: (Very Good)
Free Launch Bar is a replacement for the standard Quick Launch bar, that adds additional functionality by allowing you create groups for your shortcuts enabling you to add more links without using up additional taskbar space. Rather than having an icon for each of your shortcuts, you can chose to create a shortcut group which will bring up a menu with all items in that group - you could have 30 shortcuts in your QuickLaunch bar but only use 3 icons to organize them. Free Launch Bar allows you to create multiple shortcut groups, each with custom icon and infotip description as well as an option to bring up the menu via keyboard hotkey. A paid version is also available which offers even more features. If you want to un-clutter your QuickLaunch bar, give it a try!
