Pinner Description
With the Internet growing ever-larger each day, it becomes more and more difficult to keep track of all your favorite items. This is also available for all programs, and video games installed on your computer. However, you can organize all your collections a lot better with applications like Pinner.
Advantages of a portable app
Requiring no installation, the application is ready to run from the moment download is finished. It can even be carried around on a thumb drive, which is especially useful for carrying favorite URLs with you. Just make sure that .NET Framework is installed on the computer you want to run it on, because it’s a required component for proper functionality.
The application keeps all of your items in databases. You need to create one before going through any other feature, with the file saved at a custom location. This adds to flexibility, allowing you to create multiple databases, and only open the one you need.
Add files, folders, and URLs
Adding an item to the list takes only a little while. A compact window is brought up, so you can write down the path to a file, or URL, name you wish to see in the list, as well as an optional field for the program to open the target file. In addition, you can add an entire folder to be launched this way.
A built-in search function makes it easy to find items of interest. Moreover, you can filter according to content, either by choosing to display a list with items in a particular order, or show only items of a specific type.
Interacting with a list item brings up the target folder, URL in the default browser, or file in the configured, or default viewer. Last but not least, a hotkey can be assigned by combining special buttons with others on your keyboard in order to quickly hide, and show the main window. It’s configured from the options menu, with the program hiding to the tray area to not take up any desktop, or taskbar space, unless you need to access links, or change them.
A few last words
Bottom line is that it can get difficult to find files and folders in a crowded work environment, but using Pinner, you can simply open up a database and launch the item of interest. Adding a link only takes a little while, and accommodation is nothing to worry about. However, it could have used a few more launch options for items you add.
