CastleBar

It is easy to configure, allows for drop-down parameter lists, user-defined bitmaps, check for updates across the Internet and more …

CastleBar is a powerful yet simple toolbar menu to allow you to quickly launch applications or open folders. Keep it out of the way in the titlebar area or let it float wherever you want it. Set up buttons to open the Control Panel, the Network Neighborhood, the Recycle Bin, or almost anything else you can think of.

CastleBar is easy to configure and easy to use. You can quickly add buttons to the tool bar by browsing for the file or program to launch. Then if you need to change any of the button's details, just open up the properties dialog for the button.

Buttons don't have to stay in the order that you add them. You can change the order of the buttons easily at any time using the configuration menu. You can even temporarily disable buttons if you don't want them to appear on the tool bar now, but may want them back later at the click of a button.

There are times when you want to open a different file with the same program. Adding a separate button would take up valuable space on the screen, so CastleBar allows each button to be configured with multiple parameters. When you click the toolbar button, CastleBar drops down a list of your configured parameters and allows you to choose one.

Benefits and uses

CastleBar is a clever program that allows you one mouse-click access to your favorite applications, minimizing use of valuable desktop space. Simplify and speed up your computer tasks every day with quick and simple access to your most frequently used applications and documents.

• Save desktop space. Use CastleBar to launch your favourite applications instead of keeping icons on the desktop.
• Save space on the taskbar. Your taskbar is crowded enough, displaying all of those running applications, without having a whole bunch of shortcuts there as well.
• Be organized. CastleBar lets you group buttons using separators. Having a well organized toolbar will save you time and effort every day.
• Save yourself time. Stop hunting though multiple levels of Start Menu items and configure your favourite applications on the CastleBar launcher.
• CastleBar works the way you do. Have it as a floating toolbar which can be dragged to wherever you like, or keep it out of the way in the titlebar area of maximized windows.
• Pass parameters to your applications using easy drop-down options, to open applications in different ways or with different documents or settings.
• Forget that cluttered Favourites menu in your browser. Set up your most important Internet sites on a single CastleBar button.
