Welcome to Optool 2.12!

Optool 2.12 solves a problem with long right clicks causing certain applications to crash.

Optool is a PostcardWare (see the download section!) Windows utility for nearly all browsers that in a snap allows you to view the same web page in other browsers installed on your system. No need for that tiresome cutting and pasting url's anymore - just press your favorite hotkey or use the new and unique long right click feature.

Do you sometimes land on a page that doesn't work in your favorite browser? Or do you want to check your web creation in other browsers? Well, then Optool is for you!

Optool cannot only open different browsers, it can also on your choice close the currently open browsers. No problem if you suddenly find your desktop cluttered with just too many browser windows. Let Optool close the browser windows your don't need! (It can close other kinds of windows too, BTW!)

Need to resize the browser to check the layout you're developing? Well, Optool can do it for you. Just tell Optool which window sizes you need regularly or stick to the four standard screen sizes already built-in.

Do you ever find yourself stuck somewhere deep down a web site with no "home" link? Optool can navigate the browser to the root (home page) or just one level up. It can even go to the domain root (like www.google.com instead of images.google.com).

Ever needed a internet shortcut on the desktop or somewhere else? Optool can make it from any supported browser!
