ueli 8.9.0

Quickly launch installed programs or Windows tools by pressing Alt+Spacebar while this tiny app silently runs in the system tray

Identifying an application on the computer may sometimes feel like finding your way out of a maze, especially if you're in a hurry and you have dozens of installed tools.

To help overcome this issue, ueli proposes a simple solution: it can instantly locate programs by full or partial name, showing all possible matches in a list and giving you the possibility to quickly launch them.

Instantly find and launch applications

Developed with the Electron framework,, ueli is the type of tool that adopts simplicity, leaving out any unnecessary options and configuration settings. It creates an icon in the system tray at startup, where it sits silently throughout its runtime, without disturbing you with popup messages or reminders like other applications.

Double-clicking the tray icon doesn't do anything. It would've been helpful if ueli displayed the shortcut that can be triggered for bringing up its search window, though, because this isn't obvious without reading the documentation on the developer's website.

Press Alt+Spacebar to make searches

You can use Alt+Spacebar to access the ueli search bar, then type the full or partial name of any installed software product or Windows tool (like Windows Media Player or Windows PowerShell). ueli conducts the search operation instantly, creating a list of matches. Also, the hotkey is global, so it works no matter the environment you're currently working in.

Once you've set your eye on the program, all you have to do is launch it. Keep in mind that the mouse cannot be used for making this happen. Instead, you have to navigate the list with the arrow keys and hit Enter to access a program.

Easy-to-use app launcher

There are no kind of configuration settings available for this app, and that includes changing the global hotkey for activating the search bar. ueli is simple and straightforward, offering a convenient solution for instantly locating and launching apps.
