QuickHelp

Sure enough you can launch nearly any item of interest through desktop shortcuts or pinned elements on the taskbar. However, things can easily become crowded, making it more difficult to identify the ones of you wish to access. On the bright side of things, applications like QuickHelp want to make launching your files a little different, but easier.

One thing you need to know is that the application relies on Java Runtime Environment to function, so you might want to make sure it’s already on your computer. However, it can also be deployed through the program installer. Moreover, this means that it runs on more than just Windows operating systems.

It quietly sits in the tray area most of the times, which is the place where its features are found. Needless to say that one of the first steps is to define the items you want to quickly launch. Effort on your behalf is minimum during the creation process, and it can be configured to launch both web pages and local files.

The main requirements narrow down to a piece of text and a path. It’s recommended to keep your texts clear, because they’re also used as tags for identification. The item can be fitted with a web page for your default browser to bring up, as well as any kind of file or executable to be launched in its associated program.

You might have noticed that the tray menu doesn’t enlist your items. This is because finding and launching items is done a little different than your average launchers. In other words, you need to use a search field to quickly find items, with the results sheet showing them as detected.

To sum it up, QuickHelp is a neat little application which can increase overall productivity on your computer, but also help you keep a clean and organized workspace. It can launch any kind of file and web page, with an incredibly easy to configure operation.
