ReOpen

ReOpen is a lightweight, productivity-oriented app designed to provide users with a quick and easy way of re-opening programs and folders.

ReOpen requires no installation, and it makes its presence known via a simple icon in the tray area. Once launched, the app automatically monitors the activity of Windows Explorer.

The way it works is simple: the app runs in the system tray, and all users have to do to re-open certain apps and folders is to click the icon, and select the "Open Window" options.

A list of all the recently opened apps should appear in the GUI. To quickly launch any recently used app, users simply have to select the programs by right-clicking the specific entries.

Alternatively, an even faster method involves using a hotkey command. This can be configured from the tray menu according to everyone's needs. By default, the command is SHIFT+PAUSE.

There are a couple of extra hotkeys as well. For example, besides the general hotkey (for accessing the app's GUI), users can also set specific hotkeys for "Fast  Folder" and "Search App."

ReOpen might look a bit out of place visually on newer iterations of Windows, but at the end of the day, it serves its purpose well. It provides users with an easy way of accessing recently opened files which is very useful when working with complicated file paths.
