Apple added the Launchpad to the Mac OS X Lion to provide an alternative way to launch software apps. It includes a series of labeled icons for the applications in the Launchpad. Its design is similar to the iOS 7 springboard, and you can organize the apps into Launchpad folders. Of course, Windows doesn’t have anything comparable.

However, you can still add the Launchpad to Windows Vista, 7 or 8 with WinLaunch. (Windows XP is not listed as officially being supported.) It’s freeware software that replicates the Mac OS X Lion Launchpad on Windows. Go to the WinLaunch site and click on the download option to add it Windows. WinLaunch is saved as a ZIP folder. Right-click the folder, and then select Extract All to set up an unzipped folder. Open the unzipped WinLaunch folder, and then click on either the 32 bit X86 or 64 bit X64 folder.

Click WinLaunch Starter to open the window below. To add a new software app to it, click the Start menu; and then drag and drop a software shortcut onto WinLaunch. Press the F shortcut key to drag app shortcuts to it with WinLaunch in window mode.

Once you have added a few app shortcuts to WinLaunch, you can organize them. Drag and drop one of the shortcut icons on top of another, and they should then be grouped in a box as below. When you click the software app folder it expands as in the shot below. When the folder expands, you can move app shortcuts out of it. Left-click an app, drag it out and wait for the folder to close.

Remove apps by pressing F3. That activates a Jiggle-mode with a little X added to the shortcut app icons. You can remove the shortcuts by clicking the X delete option. Press F3 again to deactivate Jiggle-mode.
