I am looking for the most light-weight Windows dock that will allow multiple docks.
The ones I know of are Object Dock, Rocket Dock, RK Launcher, Y'z Dock, Nexus Dock.
I don't really know which is the most light-weight though. I don't need fancy features, just a basic dock.
Thanks!
Why don't you do the following:
1. Create a new folder on the desktop - let's call it "Dock"
2. move all the shortcuts you want into this folder (programs, folders, webpages, etc.)
3. push that folder all the way to the top of the screen - real tight - and release it. Now you'll see a new dock. You may have to try pushing it a few times.
4. right click on the dock and make the settings. I like the "hide" function. Then it is not in the way and only appears when you move the cursor to the top.
5. the "Dock" folder will stay on the desktop as repository. Whatever you add or delete from it, will be reflected in the dock.
6. at the end it looks like this: (mine is called "Toolbar")
You are welcome Josh. It works perfectly for me. I use that in addition to the AppLauncher in the sidebar. You might want to try that too. In case you do not find the installation .exe, I have uploaded it to this Skydrive page.
