Default Open accidentally closed programs again






I think it happens to everyone every now and then. We try to close an application and another one pops up in that moment and we accidentally close this one that we did not want to close at all. This meant that we had to open this program again while clenching our fists to trying not to cry out loud about this ******n incident.
The world is unfair we all know that but there is hope. Gone in 60 seconds is a sweat little program that prevents that programs are closed accidentally. This is done by not closing them directly but by delaying the shutdown for 60 seconds in which the shutdown can be stopped and the program recovered.
The applications disappear and are accessible from the lightning icon in the system tray which belongs to the Gone in 60 seconds application. The application will appear in the state that you accidentally closed it in which means that the data that you might have entered is still there and not lost.
A whitelist lets you close certain applications directly. Gone in 60s is a lightweight application from Donation Coder . Those guys rock, check them out !
