Launching Applications with the LifeBook Application Panel

When you start Windows, the LifeBook Application Panel is automatically activated. As an application launcher, the LifeBook Application Panel is very flexible, giving you a variety of options. An icon resembling a finger pressing a button will appear on the system tray (the indented portion of the status bar where the clock is displayed). When you see this icon you will know that LifeBook Application Panel is active. To set up the Panel to best suit your needs, we have provided the Application Panel Setup utility that quickly and easily helps you make the most of this valuable feature.
