Install and Use Taskbar Launcher

Small Package

The small package requires:

  • Windows x64
  • Microsoft .NET 10 Desktop Runtime x64

Download .NET 10 Desktop Runtime:

https://dotnet.microsoft.com/en-us/download/dotnet/10.0

Install the .NET Desktop Runtime for Windows x64.

Install

  1. Extract the Taskbar Launcher zip to a folder.
  2. Run TaskbarLauncher.exe.
  3. The app appears in the system tray.
  4. Press Ctrl+Alt+Space to open the launcher.

Configure

Open the tray menu and choose Settings.

From Settings you can:

  • Add top-level menus
  • Add submenus
  • Add folders, apps, files, and websites
  • Drag/drop items to reorder
  • Drag/drop files, folders, shortcuts, or web links into the launcher item list
  • Set per-item icon sizes
  • Back up and restore config.json
  • Enable Start with Windows

Portable Settings

The app stores settings in:

config.json

Keep config.json beside TaskbarLauncher.exe.

If config.json is missing, the app creates a clean starter config on first run.

Example Config

The source repository includes config.example.json as a public-safe example. It is not required for normal installation.

Paths in config may use Windows environment variables such as %USERPROFILE%.
