Stacks Docklet
The Stacks Docklet is a small, free add-on (docklet) for the RocketDock application launcher that brings folder stacks in the style of Mac OS X Leopard to the Windows desktop. With the Stacks Docklet, users can dock a folder and open its applications, documents, and subfolders with a single click of the mouse. The contents pop up either as a curved fan or as a grid, and the docklet can also choose the layout automatically. Each stack has its own folder, icon, and sort order, so users can keep their desktops organized and clutter-free.
The Stacks Docklet allows users to easily access and organize files and folders stored on their computer.
