Windows users have several options to launch programs on their computer system. They can use the start menu or program shortcuts to do so. Windows 7 has added the new pin to taskbar option to the list which can be used to quickly launch programs by clicking on their permanent taskbar icon. Third party tools are another option from file launchers like Launchy to system tray program launchers like SE-TrayMenu.
SE-TrayMenu is provided as a portable version and installer. The program places an icon in the Windows system tray upon startup which will display a list of programs when hovering the mouse over the icon. A click with the left mouse-button will launch a selected program immediately.
The list of programs can be customized in the program’s settings so that the most commonly used programs become available in the menu. It is furthermore possible to add a unique keyboard shortcut to some or all of the programs so that they can be launched with that shortcut as well.
The settings contain additional options to change the layout and color scheme of the program. Several templates are available as well as the means to create custom layouts and color schemes.
The computer memory usage of SE-TrayMenu lies in the region of 10 to 15 Megabytes which is fairly acceptable. The computer program is compatible with most Microsoft operating systems including Windows XP, Windows Vista and Windows 7. Both the portable version and the installer can be downloaded from the developer’s website.
