Tray-Toolbox

This tool allows you to launch any program from a simple menu sitting in your system tray.
Just click on the icon and select your application from the context menu!

Preview


Setup/Installation

Simply drag the "TrayToolbox" folder to any location and start the application by clicking on "Tray Toolbox.js".


Adding new applications

Make sure Tray Toolbox isn't running (Click "Exit" or stop the process in your task manager).
Open the "programs.txt" file. Type in the name of the application (this text will appear in the context menu) and add the path to your application in the next line.
Make sure the file doesn't contain any empty lines!
Start Tray Toolbox.

Example:

Taskmanager
C:\Windows\System32\Taskmgr.exe
Mixer
C:\Windows\System32\SndVol.exe

Run at startup

Press Win+R, type in "shell:startup", hit enter and create a shortcut to the "Tray Toolbox.js" file.


Hiding the exit-button

Make sure Tray Toolbox isn't running (Click "Exit" or stop the process in your task manager).
Open the "context.txt" file and change "hideExit=false" to "hideExit=true".
If you change the text to "hideExit=false" again, the button will reappear.
Start Tray Toolbox.

hideExit=true
