Is it possible to install RocketDock multiple times on the desktop? I would like to summarize program groups therein.

A
Answer by Alex Urbach

Yes, it's possible to run RocketDock on multiple instances, but you have to do some tweaking first.


Download the application from the official website: http://files.punklabs.com/RocketDock/RocketDock-v1.3.5.exe


Install it, and then copy the entire folder another location, but before that, access the settings of the software. Customize it and check the Store settings in a INI file. Copy the folder to another place, and uninstall it.


Then, copy the folder again and rename it (for example, C:\RocketDock_UP). Run RocketDock.exe and change the settings. Close the dock and make sure that a file "Settings.ini" was created in the directory from where you've launched it.


If you want to place it in another location, create another folder, copy the contents and run it again, but access the Settings.INI with Notepad and modify the Side to where you want it. Write 1 to enable and 0 to disable.

No, there is official version created as portable. However, you can create the portable version for yourself. Simply configure it the way you want it with all the icons and shortcuts and then go to Dock Settings > General and tick the option like you see in the image below. After this procedure, you can close it and copy the installation folder from C:\Program Files\RocketDock to another location or computer. When you launch it, it should be the same.

Note: Make sure to configure it with all the resources copied in the installation folder.

Answer by Robert Polubinski

To uninstall, close the application and delete the folder. If you want automatic uninstall, simply run the uninstall application from the installation folder or from the Control Panel > Add or Remove programs. If you encounter issues, try using Revo Uninstaller. Even if it can't uninstall the application normally, it will force it to uninstall by wiping out all traces of its presence from the system.

I have a computer running Windows 7 64-bit. I have added full control to the RD security option. I have also added animated Icons folder to RD Icons in dockets. Now when I right click on the blank space or blank icon in the docket, I select "add" and then I am not given the animated shortcut option. What am I doing wrong?

A
Answer by Aiden McLeod

You can't find the option to add an animated shortcut because there is no such option. The animation is done automatically by the program. You can find the available options for animations by clicking on the Dock Settings icon from the docket and go to Behavior tab.

I want to change my Microsoft Office Word title bar. How can I do this?

L
Answer by Leonard Moore

Unfortunately, you can't change the title bar of any application using RocketDock. This application creates a custom launcher on your desktop which you can use to access your applications much faster. To change the icon of Microsoft Office Word application that is on the dock, go to Option menu > Icons > select Microsoft Word and choose what icon suits you.
