There is also one particularly serious problem. NET or other dependencies - it runs on anything from Windows 98-8. And as usual with SoftwareOK products, there are no annoying.

Background RAM use is reasonable at around 7MB. But it's easy to launch via the regular Win+R key (although you can change this to whatever you like).

The program does its best to stay out of your way, by default minimising to the system tray. It comes with built-in links to many system tools, but you can also add more of your own. There's even a customisable Favorites system, which acts something like a mini Start menu. So for instance Run-Command has built-in icons for Regedit, Cmd.exe, the Computer Management and System Properties dialogs, and more. There are quick ways to launch commonly-used tools. (You can do this from the regular Run box by entering a program name and pressing Ctrl+Shift+Enter, but this is certainly easier.) There's also a button to run your specified program as an administrator, though. Launch it, type a program name (or browse to it), press Enter and it'll appear. You can use the program just like the regular Run box. Run-Command is a tiny, portable and more powerful version of the Windows Run box.
