Thanks for over 190.000 Downloads and Updates :)

WinLaunch - Launchpad for Windows (Beta - still got some work to do)
---------------------------
Read this!
WinLaunch requires .Net 4.0: [link]

for a demonstration of all the features (adding apps, making folders, options, etc...)
watch this [link]


This is Launchpad(Quickstarter) taken from Mac OS X Lion and implemented for Windows.

I know many people have done similar projects,
but i wasn't able to find one that replicated it good enough.

So i started working on my own version.
I put some real effort into making the look and feel as close to
the original as possible.

As stated above this is still a BETA version,
if you have found a bug please report it to me (LaunchpadByC0rrupted@gmail.com).

WinLaunch works at any resolution, but has been optimized to run at FullHD.

Next major release
---------------------------
- Improved folder rendering performance
- Fix for folder rendering glitches

Planned for future relases
---------------------------
- Context menus
- Custom icon layouts
- Installer


Updated to 0.4.6.1

I would like to see the option of a time and weather widget. It would be nice to maybe click F12 (or something) and out from either side you would get weather and time info. Maybe this widget that pops out could be set up to be whatever you want it to be (feeds, mail, breaking news.....).

Still using this beautiful app, but I often see this exception appearing in a messagebox:
The requested operation cannot be performed on a file with a user-mapped section open.
Would love if you could fix it!

Great work, but I've a problem. My PC bluscreened toda and it seems that it corrupted my winlaunch settings. Are the backed up anywhere? I think I got a message when I rebooted but it was one out of a dozen so I just clicked to get it out of the way. Any help would be appreciated...

Im running this on a three display system. Displays 1 and 3 are 1680x1050 resolution and 2, the middle one, at 1920x1080. I keep Winlaunch on display 1. It seems that WL doesn't handle too well desktops with different display resolutions because it uses the main display resolution as base size on all displays. This means that the program reserves itself 1920x1080 space no matter what display it is on. It should adapt itself to the display resolution of the display it is assigned on.

(Was this too confusing? I can try to clarify this later on.)
