There are many launchers, which save you time and make you work faster with keyboard shortcuts. Yes again I’m talking about launchers, since they are the heart of a power user’s computer experience most power users can not live without a launcher of some kind, may it be a mouse based or a keyboard based one.
My favorite launcher when using keyboard is FARR (Find And Run Robot). FARR is absolutely a pleasure to use and fun too and it saves me a ton of time going through the start menu. I really love FARR when it comes to keyboard launchers.
Other types of launcher I prefer to keyboard based ones are the ones which launch folders and applications using a context menu entry. This is very useful if you are using a mouse all the time. Previously I was using FolderGuide which was simply superb except for a minor drawback, it only adds your folders as links in the context menu it doesn’t support adding applications, files and links.
This is where JumpTo comes in handy, I like to think JumpTo as a more complete version of FolderGuide. JumpTo fills in all the gaps left by FolderGuide and I’m happy to say that JumpTo works really well too. It does what I expect out of all software, It puts a smile on your face.
This will also give you the ability to use the keyboard launch facility similar to FARR as it has a run box which allows use for the keyboard lovers.
Another thing I like about this is that its all self contained it does not write anything to your registry, or write anything out of its own program folder.
