8start Launcher is a free portable application launcher, I created 8start Launcher because the author believe there should be a convenient way to access application than using windows start menu, quick launch and desktop. Windows desktop look messy if too many shortcuts in the desktop, windows start menu become hard to access if too many applications installed in the computer, windows quick launch not suitable to handle too many shortcuts.

Now you can make your desktop wallpaper never be blocked by the icons, you never have to search program shortcuts in start menu. You can divide different programs into categories and groups, and access it by a single click.

The author put a lot of effort on created 8start Launcher, included skinnable design and shortcuts grouping interface. After using this application I am so used to it that I can't manage to work on computers where it isn't installed.
With continuous improvement, 8start Launcher is including fast and beautiful Tree Notes feature.
