Portable Executor is an intuitive application that gives users full control over the launching process of different applications, by packing many customizable options to tinker with.
Since this is a portable version of the program, it is important to mention that it doesn’t leave any traces in the Windows Registry. You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you to need to launch different programs on the breeze.
It sports a clean GUI that offers quick access to a preset list with different launching tasks and a search box. After picking a task from the list, the program runs quietly in the system tray until called upon, hence you can focus solely on your work.
Compared to the primary panel of the application which is minimalist, the configuration window bundles many dedicated parameters especially designed for customizing the launching procedure.
Thus, you can define a new launching process by specifying the keyword, command, parameters, the working directory and comment, and by adding a program to the list with the use of the “drag and drop” support or the browse button. For identifying an app easily, you can pick an icon from a predefined list or add a local image.
Another important feature worth mentioning is the possibility of assigning a hotkey to each launching task, as well as making the program open the selected application in a normal, minimized, maximized or hidden window. Before actually saving the user-defined settings, you can perform launching tests.
The keywords introduced to the list can be sorted alphabetically and exported to EXC format. You can also import keywords from the Windows startup menu, specify valid URLs, and scan the list for dead keywords.
Other configuration settings enable the program to run at Windows boot, stay on top of other applications, and keep a log with details about the entire process. Sound notifications can also be enabled, and you can pick your own WAV, MP3 or WMA file.
Overall, Portable Executor is a reliable application that allows users to define the entire launching process of different applications by packing many useful features and a clean layout.
