Volume Hotkey Control

Submitted by Devo on May 23, 2008 - 12:14pm

I'm sorry that I don't have an actual app to request, just an idea for one. I tend to change the volume on my computer a lot and hate having to click on the icon to bring up the slider.

I was thinking it would be a good idea to have an app that sets hotkeys to change the Master Volume on the computer. Something like Ctrl+Shift+Up to increase the volume and Ctrl+Shift+Down to decrease the volume and maybe Ctrl+Shift+0 to mute. I know this could conflict with other hotkeys, but it is just an idea.

Duplicate files finder

Submitted by Emrys on May 23, 2008 - 11:43am

Suggestions for the installer of PortableApps

Submitted by duhowpi on May 23, 2008 - 2:16am

For example, I download a file, and when I execute it, it show all the apps that exist and allows me to choose whom I want. Is only a suggestion.

What is Open Workbench?

Open Workbench is an open source desktop scheduling application. Released in 2004, it’s a free and powerful alternative to Microsoft Project.
