Category: Run / Start

The Run category contains functions used primarily to open, run, and switch to applications and folders

The Run category contains functions to launch applications, documents, Internet Favorites, Control Panel applications, recently used files, and other shortcuts. When using certain functions in the Run category the Select button is also visible, which enables the user to quickly locate the desired application or file.

The Start Application function is perhaps the most widely used WinMapper function, and launches the specified application/document. Use the Select button to find your document, shortcut, Internet Favorite, and any other kind of application.

The Switch To Application performs the same action as the Start Application, but checks first to see if the document or application is already open. If so, focus is switched to the open application instead.

Certain functions are available to re-run the most recently used document (system wide), re-run the last application or folder started using GotoDir, or opening standard Microsoft Windows applications or folders such as the Control Panel and Printers. The AutoRun feature enables you to set up a hotkey to perform the AutoRun action on the inserted CD-ROM - this is similar the (default) action performed by Microsoft Windows when a new CD-ROM is inserted in a CD-ROM drive.
