Nice app, but too slow, which makes it unsuable
When I click on the stack I have to wait 1-2 seconds before it appears, and that is on my Raid-0 SSDs hosting the stack. I thought it would be instantaneous...
Standalonestack is also slow. Anyone know of any other apps like those ?

This program is a piece of crapp.
Doesn't works when you click the stack and only shows the grid or menu almost 2 minutes after.
Don't waste your time with this crappy program.

@informale and everyone else using this with Windows 7: To prevent 7Stacks from being to slow you have to remove the language bar from the taskbar. 1. Right click on the language bar (left of the tray bar - if you're an english reader it's probably "EN"), then "Settings...". 2. Click on "Language Bar" Tab 3. Now set it either to "Floating On Desktop" or "Hidden" 4. Click "OK" and you're done!^^

So how do you get a Game stack as in the picture above? What is the file name or perhaps it's a GUID?

Okay, tested it on a win7 installation in a virtual machine - it does work. But to my taste, it is unusable in real life - a bit slow, a bit workaround-ish (separate processes).

Nice app, but starts to slow. And why having a single process for each stack and not making it multi-task-able. Standalonestack is even better but does not work for me cause I have my taskbar on top but stacks are alway opended upwards. With 7Stacks it works fine, but to slow as I said.

Works fine for me... Interesting, but more of an eye candy thing imo.
