When I get the call in the evening telling me that it is time to come home, I want to drop what I am doing, close down my machine and get moving. So… a little help to find all the open programs and get them closed down more efficiently is a great boon to my life. If you are running Windows 7 you have probably fallen in love with the Taskbar once you have gotten used to it but when you are closing down it is a little hard to see what all you still have open. In comes Close All Windows [NTWind Software via Addictive Tips]. Download this application and then Pin it to your Taskbar. Now one click and all your applications will close. If you have unsaved documents you will still be prompted to save so don’t worry about losing work. It doesn’t use any system resources, great!, all it does is send a close signal to all of your open windows.
You can use this with earlier versions of Windows if you add this program to your Quick Launch Bar. Works great.
