Replacement Run Dialog

Replacement Run Dialog is an easy-to-use application that provides a replacement for the Windows "Run" dialog when the original one becomes faulty due to various reasons, such as malware attacks or OS glitches.

It doesn't include complicated options or customization preferences, making it suitable for all types of users, even the ones less experienced with shell replacement tools.

The entire program's packed in a single .exe file that can be saved anywhere on the disk or copied to a removable storage unit, in order to seamlessly launch it on any PC with as little effort as possible.

It doesn't create any files on the HDD without your permission, or add new entries to the system registry. In order to get it of it, you simply have to delete this executable file. Just keep in mind that .NET Framework must be installed.

When it comes to the interface, Replacement Run Dialog adopts the same window as the Windows "Run" tool, complete with the drop-down menu and three buttons for confirming and canceling the task after entering a command, as well as for browsing the hard disk for an .exe, .pif, .com, .bat or .cmd file to launch.

It invites you to type the name of a program, folder, document or Internet resource to open, and it even retains the past commands recorded in the history menu. There are no other notable options available here.

It worked smoothly in our tests, without triggering the operating system to hang, crash or indicate errors. CPU and RAM usage was minimal, so it didn't hamper the computer's performance or interfere with the runtime of other processes.

If you resort to a third-party software product, you can even set a global keyboard shortcut for quickly launching Replacement Run Dialog, or even replace the Win+R combination reserved for the built-in "Run" tool. Thanks to its straightforward approach, you can easily get this program up and running.
