SafeLaunch Product InformationSafeLaunch is a powerful utility that allows you to execute applications in the security context of any user registered in your system. All you have to do is to register the user within SafeLaunch, choose application to execute and press the "Launch" button! More Information
Usage
-
Application for administrators and advanced users.
SafeLaunch can be found very useful for administrators and users who
always work logged on to the computer as administrators and who
sometimes need to execute programs or work with documents received from
unsafe locations. You'll find it very comfortable to execute such
"unsafe" stuff under some member of the Users local group, maybe even a
user, created especially for these tasks - a user with little rights.
Without SafeLaunch you usually log off, log on that user and then
execute the application. Now, with SafeLaunch, you simply register that
user, select the "unsafe" application and press the Launch button!
-
Application for careful administrators.
There are many people
who intentionally work on NT system logged as a simple user, although
they actually are single users of the system. They are just careful
people - their work can be connected with Internet, large Intranets or
LANs and they have to deal with a large amount of different "unknown"
and "unsafe" applications and documents. In case such careful user has
to install drivers, run system management applications or change system
configuration, he has to log off and log back on as an administrator
losing all running applications. Now he can register the administrator
account within SafeLaunch, clear "Remember password" checkbox for
security reasons and replace all that bored operations with a single
key-press!
-
Application for programmers.
Do you write software, which is
able to execute on the single machine and maintain different data for
each user of that machine? SafeLaunch is the best way to test this
application. Log off and log on several hundreds times a day? Move your
neighbor's computer closer to yours? Now, with SafeLaunch it's all in
the past. All you have to do is to switch tabs in the SafeLaunch main
window!
-
Multiple users program installation.
Imagine you want to
install some application, which tunes itself for each user on your
machine. Now you just have to switch tabs in SafeLaunch! With new
powerful ability of logging different users interactively on several
desktops simultaneously, you can even setup visual representations of
the desktop for each local user without the need to log off and on
several times.
Features
- Multiple desktop support
SafeLaunch allows you to log on many users on their own desktops and load their own visual settings simultaneously.
- Advanced security model
SafeLaunch never stores clean passwords. Even when you select "Remember password" checkbox, the password is stored encoded.
- History and Favorites
SafeLaunch maintains history of
launched programs for each registered user as long as a list of
Favorites. The list of favorites can be traded between two different
users, sorted and edited.
- Start button emulation
When you press the Start button situated on the SafeLaunch dialog box, you get an ordinal start menu, but: for selected user!
- Drag&Drop support
You can drag a file (or multiple
files) onto the SafeLaunch window. They will be immediately launched in
the context of the selected user.
- Explorer context menu launcher
You can launch files directly from the explorer context menu!
- Minimizing to tray
SafeLaunch can be minimized into the
tray, thus saving your desktop space. In this form, all SafeLaunch
features are available from the popup menu.
