Launch Programs Faster in Windows:
Select program links may be imported from the Windows Start Button into the ActivatorDesk Programs Launch Bar. Then programs may be launched with a single click on their link in the Launch Bar. To import links simply click on the import folder in the Tool Buttons or right mouse button click on the Launch Control Bar.


Use the Target Button in the ActivatorDesk Buttons to instantly access single click launching of imported program links at any time.


Launch Bar Right-Click Menu Guide:
  • Import Programs - Scans the Windows Start button for program Links and loads the dialog above to select program links to import.
  • Organize Programs - Temporarily switches off program launching so links in the displayed tree may be organized. Note: Must be disabled (unchecked) for normal program launching.
  • Add Folder to Programs - Enables creation of a tree folder in which program links may be placed.
  • Delete Program Link - Delete selected (highlighted) Program Link.


It is Faster Than Windows - The Launch Control Bar was concieved as a superior program launching system to the Windows Start button. Classically, to launch a program using the Windows Start button one may have to click many times to expand its panels-links to finally view the desired program link to launch. This is called 'restarting your Start', because this must be done again and again if you wish to launch more than one program in this way. Usually the Start button is also loaded up with tens or hundreds of icons, most which will never need to be used. This is confusing which also delays fast convenient navigation to the launching of select programs.

The Launch Control Bar eliminates this. You may launch programs with just one or two clicks right from your internet desktop browser system. If the program Launch Bar is not visible, simply click on the Target Button shown at left to instantly display it. Then click on the link to launch the desired program. Unlike the Windows Start button, the ActivatorDesk Launch Bar always leaves its navigation tree expanded. It never has to be 'restarted'.

Once one has imported only the important and most useable programs into the Launch Panel, programs may usually be launched in just one or two clicks instead of the many clicks normally required by the Start button. Only needed programs are displayed substantially reducing confusion and increasing speed.

Memory Management: The MSIE browser engine usually uses a lot of memory, particularly if multiple websites are simultaneously viewed with multiple instances of IE. IE also 'caches' websites in your computer which speeds browsing, but again takes more memory. If the Windows Start button is then used to launch another program, IE still occupies the use of this memory. However, if you launch applications using the ActivatorDesk Programs Launch Bar, the bulk of RAM memory is restored from IE for faster running of the requested application!
