Developer’s Description

By Conceptworld

Launch any file, folder, program, Web site and access clipboard history from a single place.

RecentX is a launcher designed to make your computing life joyful. It is stuffed with innovative ways of accessing your stuff on your Windows PC with lightning speed. With RecentX, you can access any file, folder, program, or website in about 2-7 seconds. It may be anywhere on your computer.

This way, you will achieve more in a day with less physical stress. You do not have to waste time finding scattered files, navigating through deep folders, program menus, accessing cluttered desktop shortcuts, unorganized bookmarks & slow network paths.

What's special about RecentX? RecentX automatically remembers & shows your recent & favorite items first. This makes launching lot quicker than any other file search utility. Your best items are searched faster than other less important stuff. RecentX integrates with Windows file open/save dialog window so that you can quickly choose your file or folder instead of browsing the file open/save dialog window, which is tedious. Plus, RecentX also has an in-built clipboard manager. It keeps history of all the text & images that you copy to clipboard. It will save you from several repetitive tasks of copying/pasting and accidental deleting of important text from an email, document.

DragonUSMCJuly 27, 2017
Pros
I author dozens of files every day -- and with some many sub-folders - often not sure where I 'dumped 'the file == no longer need to search -- what a great treat ! and as I email near 50% of the files -- just open the program - and there it sits on top and simply drag to the compose box -- again - Great time saver MOST important GREAT CUSTOMER SERVICE answer all email under 24 hours !!
Cons
none so far ... well -- be nice to have permission to load on more than one of my laptops :)
Summary
lie every one -- I use as many free programs as I can -- but I have zero regrets for paying for this one -- time saved well worth the price

Pros
When you have dozens of apps, working on many files at any time - then this is the solution.
Cons
To get the most out of it, some manual work is needed. If that is a con.

Would not miss it. Tried many similar programs, nothing comes close.
RecentX: Nice Concept but Flawed Execution!
prstonJuly 26, 2011
Pros
Great concept for improving office productivity.
Cons
Poor design of important functions diminishes RecentX's usefulness as a timesaver.
Summary
RecentX attempts to offer a solution to the need of improving office productivity. During the course of a busy day, I may open nearly 3 dozen Word documents. Consequently, it would be nice to quickly re-open a recent file by clicking on a categorized list and selecting the recent file rather than searching for it with Windows Explorer. RecentX's CONCEPT of listing all recent activity into convenient categories (ie. files, folders, programs, & web sites) is very appealing as a time saver. UNFORTUNATELY, RecentX's execution of its concept falls short of the mark. Although RecentX categorizes by 'content' type (such as 'files'), the lists within those broad categories can rapidly become a cluttered mess, defeating the purpose of quickly finding a specific file. Although RecentX offers a method--Tags--to organize a 'catagory' list into groups of common files, the Tag function is poorly designed, rendering it ineffective and inefficient. How so? Try to rename or delete a Tag category! Also, moving files (or folders) into or out of a Tag category is not as fluid as it should be. In CONCLUSION, until RecentX improves its means to categorize files (or folders) into groups within the list of a main category, RecentX fails to live up to its potential as a productivity tool.
THE Information Organizer

Pros
RecentX is awesome. It organizes all your information right at your finger tips. No more rummaging thru various menus, windows and whatnot for a file, program or website.
Cons
would like more flexibility in the column chooser, such as to archive tags that are infrequently used, maybe.
Summary
This beautiful little app will save you time, pulled out hair, and your peace of mind. You literally have control over all your information right under your fingertips that is better organized than anything comming out of Redmond, WA!
Finally found the file launcher I've been looking for!

Pros
So many to name. Please read review below.
Cons
None so far.
Summary
This small program clears up all the clutter on your desktop. I got tired of constantly organizing, creating, deleting unwanted desktop icons. Other desktop organizers worked for a while but even those were not enough to control the every creeping jungle of disorganized icons growing on my desktop daily. I've tried countless numbers of program launchers and desktop cleanup utilities until I found RecentX. It easily organizes programs, files, folders, documents etc. into one quick launcher utility. It's small, unobtrusive, lightweight and very fast. It only uses up about 6 MB of memory. You can launch programs and folder from the system tray or the small launcher bar which you can reposition to your liking. You can create tags and add tags to programs and folders to customize launch lists or create several launch lists of your own. Now I can see more of my desktop and wallpaper. This is bar none the best desktop app launcher out there. Plus the interface is clean, neat and professional looking.
tremendously useful
-deb-October 4, 2010
Pros
Inconspicuous on the desktop, but highly accessible. Easy to install and use. A range of options is available once you locate a file -- open, explore folder, delete, tag, or copy its path. You can exclude specified files or folders from results.
Cons
none found yet
Summary
RecentX is a go-to tool that you'll miss every time you have to use a PC without it. This is the quickest means I've seen of getting to files, folders, programs, and web sites.
This is a must have product.
wapbapOctober 1, 2010
Pros
I like everything about this product. It's intuitive and easy to use. It's great for finding a file you used but may not remember the whole file name or you remember the folder name so you can find it that way.
Cons
There is nothing that I don't like about this program.
Summary
I have used this product for at least 3 or 4 years now - first at home then I purchased a new license so I could use it at work because it is such a time-saver versus using Windows Explorer to dig through your tree of folders just to find a file. One great feature is the ease with which it can be used to identify and attach one or more files to an email. It is also very easy to adjust or change the customizable features.
Fast access to everyth. Intuïtive and very easy to use
