Re:Use Launchy 2.5 and Forget Your Windows Start Menu by Sword_Monkey on Monday March 19, 2012 @01:24PM (#3724987)
Used to use Launchy loads a few years ago, brilliant little program, moved on the Executor http://executor.dk/ for a bit more power (keyboard shortcuts specifically). Launchy may have updated to compete since then though.

I think this program could be particularly useful for Windows 8 and it's lack of start menu.

You can just start typing on the start screen to search. All the previous shorcut keys also work.
