WinShortcuts is a tool that facilitates a user-friendly environment for organizing all your frequently used shortcuts into a single place. It gives you the possibility to sort them in different categories and easily access them.

Setting up this program is a fast and easy job that shouldn't impose any difficulties. As far as the interface is concerned, the application creates an icon in the system tray area at startup and gets sent there on minimization, so it doesn't interfere with your regular PC activity.

Several shortcuts are listed in the main window by default, which has a clean look and layout. These focus on the shortcuts of programs from some Windows built-in features, such as Accessories, Ease of Access, Games, and System Tools, in addition to the root drive of all partitions, as well as special folders (e.g. My Documents, My Music).

Multiple tabs are supported, and each of them can be populated with different shortcuts split into various categories. It's only necessary to specify the name, path and belonging group of a shortcut to add it to the list. Additional options are available for advanced PC users who want to input command-line arguments, starting location, and hotkey.

By opening the right-click menu, it's possible to launch applications on the spot, edit shortcut settings, remove any entry from the list, as well as view file properties in WinShortcuts (just like in Windows Explorer).

It's equipped with simple and intuitive options for creating and managing shortcuts to various programs from a single environment on the computer, and it can be minimized to the systray. CPU and RAM consumption was minimal in our tests and we haven't found any stability issues.

Taking everything into account, WinShortcuts can be used by anyone who wants to boost their productivity when juggling multiple programs on the computer.
