4.4 out of 5 stars 4.4 (117 votes)

BETA (November 18, 2009)

Windows 7/2000/2003/2008/Vista/XP / Shareware; $19.90 / 5,278 downloads

True Launch Bar is a superior replacement for the standard Quick Launch bar. All functions presented in Quick Launch are also in True Launch Bar. However, the True Launch Bar is fully compatible with Quick Launch because it uses the same folder for shortcuts. But there is one huge difference. True Launch Bar allows you to combine your shortcuts into groups. This feature looks like popup menus. This vastly improves the management of your shortcuts and save working space on your desktop. By using True Launch Bar, you speed up the launching of your applications like never before.

    I used FLB for many years before purchasing TLB and I have no regrets at all. TLB is a great application that I really cannot do without.. fortunately, since purchasing TLB gets you free upgrades and its development is very active I don't need to. :)

    PS The new Beta is very cool under Vista/W7. Nice one Yuri.

    True Launch Bar is one of those unique programs rarely seen in this world of "me too" software. It is a simple concept elegantly executed. It adds nothing to the Windows UI, it merely enhances what is already there: the quick launch tool bar. The multitude of available options allows a toolbar to be built precisely to the user's needs. The program has no competition.

    True Launch Bar is a mature program that is still being enhanced. The $20 cost with permanent upgrades is truly a give-away, especially since I use this program on an every day basis.

    Great application. FreeLaunchBar does the basics, and True Launch Bar gives you access to a multitude of plug-ins.

    kholdstare: Actually the idea is to let you customize your taskbar to your preference. If you want a lean taskbar, you are capable while having easy access to anything, if you want more visibility and monitoring, you can do that too.
