Yawn,
I can relate to your problem very much. I've also tried multiple software and finally I have come back to use notepad on Windows. I have done a small setup to make my todo list simple and accessible:
1. Press f5 to get date time stamp
2. List down all your task without numbers one below the other in the beginning of the day or as the tasks get assigned to you.
3. As you complete each task write DONE in front of it.
4. At the end of the day group all the tasks with DONE if front of them below the date you completed, pushing the rest of task below
5. Come back next day to your task list and add an empty line. The tasks without DONE are still pending, follow from step 1.
How to make your todo list accessible on a Windows machine:
1. Created a "TODO" directory and add a text file call it todo.txt
2. Create a shortcut of the file, rename it to "todo" and cut-copy-paste the shortcut to C:\windows\system32
3. Now press "Windows key + R" and type "todo" in the command window. This will open your list.
I have been using the list for over 6 months now and this is how it looks:
9:39 AM 1/16/2012
DONE ESA Request retrieve the lost records
DONE Update the email notification when esa request status changes
9:04 AM 1/17/2012
DONE Follow up with CA about MS Project installation.

DONE Site Usage Report 1. Change Column order 2. Sort By 3. Relative Path

- j_s 15y agoYou can assign a unique shortcut key directly within a shortcut's 'Properties' if desired (either this or just hit the Windows key and start typing to let Windows Vista+ search for it); in an everything's-working-perfectly world the text file and/or the shortcut can be anywhere. Anything unnecessary in the system folders tends to be bad news.
- richardw 15y agoI have a 'shortcuts' directory under my personal directory, and have added it to my PATH variable. I put various things in there - links to apps, documents, even the shortcut directory itself. One trick with autocomplete - if you edit the Internet Explorer options -> Use Inline Autocomplete it'll auto-complete on Win-R, so you'll usually just type (using your example) 'to' and [enter] (after it's linked the shortcut to the text the first time).
