Pretty Run is a nice little program that provides search functionality similar to the start menu search of Windows 7

but provides even a few features in addition to that. Also, it works with Windows XP, and Windows Vista too. XP does not have any type of menu search, while Vista did come with a basic search. So, Pretty Run is quite useful for those operating systems. It provides a nice search interface in which you can search for anything, and it will display the results. Also, the results are nicely organized into various groups.

“Pretty Run is designed with the ability to help you easily locate files.”

Features:

• Search through Internet Explorer favourites.
• Search through Firefox bookmarks.
• Search through Chrome bookmarks.
• Search printers and start printer properties.
• Search through Control panel items.
• Setup internet search engines and you can search internet with selected engine.
• Remember last items copied to clipboard and bring them back in case you need them.
• Search through mp3 files (not file names but tags)
• Run a group of programs with one click.
• Setup your magic words and start favourite programs really quickly.
