RocketDock Editor's Review
These days, the work of computer is not confined to any particular thing. Different people are doing different thing on their computers and at the same time, one person is also doing many thing on his or her PC. This is reason for the main screen of most of the PCs filled with icons. At the same time, there are some functions, which could be initiated only after going to the start menu button. However, all the necessary icons could be grouped together and placed at a single point and each of the pinned application could be initiated from that place.
The function, we have discussed above could be done with the help of a software called RocketDock. It is available for only Windows users. RocketDock can be downloaded without spending any money, as it is freeware. The procedure of downloading and installation of RocketDock is quite simple and more or less similar to that of any general software. So, you should not face any difficulty in installing this software in your system.
Now come down to the most essential part of this software; that is its functionality. The main function of RocketDock is to create shortcuts, so that the user could access many things from a single place. The RocketDock creates a small dock. You can put this dock at anywhere on your desktop. Now, you could pin any desktop icon to the dock and access those from the dock. If you want your desktop screen fully revealed, then you could pin every desktop icon with the dock. Not only the desktop icons but you could pin a program from the start menu with the dock. This means, you could open a new MS Word file without clicking on the start menu.
The dock icon is a really cute one and at the same time, you could give the dock icon a shape and size of your own choice. You would find many options as far as the shape of the dock is concerned. You could choose any of those and at the same time, you could make the dock icon small or large, according to your choice. You could customize the text of the dock. This means, you have a supreme control on the dock. You would not find huge number of default dock icons. If you are looking for more icons, then you can download those from the World Wide Web.
It is really easy to use the RocketDock. At the same time, this software is fast, so you would enjoy using this. However, you can say that not all the people will find this software useful. However, this serves its purpose very well.
You may find that the dock is vying your attention unnecessarily, when it is put on the top of the screen. The simple way to avoid this problem is, don’t put the dock on the top of the screen. You are allowed to place it anywhere, then why should you put it a problematic place? One more thing, the RocketDock may annoy you by popping out, when you don’t need that, even when you have enable the auto hide option. As of now, there is no solution available for this problem.
If you click frugally, then this is the software for you. With the help of this software, you could easily save some of your precious clicks.
Positive Points:
- Integrates seamlessly with Vista, Seven and XP.
- Huge number of customization options available.
Negative Points:
- Takes some memory when used on computers with lesser resources.
- Dock pops up even if we get close to it, even when autohide feature is enabled.
Conclusion:
Rocketdock is a program that is available for no cost, but still manages to do the work it is made for. There are a few drawbacks and glitches here and there but those do not interfere with its functionality or its performance. It is a very useful piece of code which does the required better than anything available. If you really want quick access to useful folders or programs, without losing your money, or without too much of hassle, this software is made for you.
