Though this small file locator isn't feature-rich, it performs its chief function well. KeyLaunch performs an extensive search of all directories by using shortcut keys and hot keys to quickly access files and folders from anywhere on your desktop. You can quickly access its simple interface by clicking the system tray icon or by hitting its hot key (its default hot key is the scroll lock). After that, every file or folder beginning with the letters you type are listed for immediate launching. You also can configure KeyLaunch to begin at Windows start-up, open particular applications or files with user-defined hot keys, and search through MP3s, though the program notes this feature can slow its performance down considerably. While this simple utility doesn't have many features, users will find it is quite handy since it carries out its primary function with accuracy and speed.
