Question. 8start Launcher can keep shortcuts/web link/file link either in Static Category (default is 'General') or Dynamic Category (default is 'Tree'). I get confuse that where should I add shortcuts/web link/file link into .
Answer. Generally, I recommend you to keep your frequent use shortcuts/web link/file link in Static Category. Group all related shortcuts/web link/file link together and keep in Dynamic Category.
Benefit of using Static Category: fastest way to launch program, appereance of button can be customized.
Recommendation: Move your desktop icons (which is frequent use) into Static Category, delete all icons in desktop which is seldom use. You can create more than one Static Category if needed.
Benefit of using Dynamic Category: Unlimited items, include notes taking feature, items can be shared via file server, multi-level tree.
Recommendation: Use Dynamic Category to keep all your web favorites. Link to all programs in tree organized way. You can create more than one Dynamic Category if needed, e.g. one Dynamic Category for web favorites, one Dynamic Category for note taking.
