The Opener
The Opener is a fully customizable window that allows the user to select a variety of user defined applications to launch (or files to open) at once. The user has the option to have any number of Radio groups and one group of Checkboxes.
The Opener requires AutoHotkey be installed. AutoHotkey needs to be at least version 1.0.47.01.
