All Your Everyday Programs,
One Click Away.

dsAppLaunch puts the programs you use every day on one clean screen, as a grid of cards. Group them, colour-code them, and start any one with a click — or tick the ones you always open together and start them all at once.

Download Installer (.msi) Microsoft Store — coming soon

Windows 10 or 11, 64-bit. The installer is self-contained: nothing else to install.

dsAppLaunch main window: cards grouped under Daily Work and System Tools, three ticked, with the Launch Selected (3) button

A Tidy Home for Your Programs

No more hunting through the Start menu or a crowded desktop.

Launch Selected

Tick the programs you open every morning and press one button. They start one after another, in on-screen order, and you get a single note at the end if anything could not start.

Groups and Colours

Put cards under headings like Office or Accounts, set the order inside each group, and colour-code cards with a stripe and soft tint. Each card shows the program's own icon, or one you pick.

Network Shares Welcome

Point cards at programs on a server. The window opens instantly and each card fills in its icon and file date in the background, so a slow or offline server never freezes the launcher.

Drag, Drop, Done

Drag programs or shortcuts from Explorer straight onto the list, or use Browse. Add, edit, reorder and remove everything from one Manager dialog.

Private by Design

No account, no ads, no tracking, and no network connections of its own. Your list is a plain JSON file in your own Windows profile, and it never leaves your computer.

Guides in English and हिंदी

The first time you open it, two how-to cards are waiting: a step-by-step guide in English and one in Hindi. No technical knowledge needed.
