Folder View

Your desktop can easily become a crowded space, especially if you use it to store just about anything, from shortcuts, to files, and folders. Luckily, alternatives come in the form of intuitive third-party applications like Folder View, which can add custom locations to different options to access with little effort.

Features:

• Simple wizard for initial setup


• Add document folders, special ones, or items found in a directory


• Access folders from the selected location with a click


• Integrate in multiple areas of your system for convenience


• Customize the list of locations at any time

When launched for the first time, you're taken through a simple wizard, allowing you to choose what folders to add to the list. The application can include document folders, special ones, or items found in a directory you select. Note, however, that only folders are shown, and not other files or executables.

There are several ways in which this application enhances access to locations of interest. On the one hand, it enables you to access folders from the selected location by simply clicking the associated tray icon. It brings up a menu showing all subfolders of the parent directory, and opens the selection with File Explorer.

The application can integrate in multiple areas of your system to provide more comfort when having to work with selected directories. This can even mean adding the list of folders as an explorer toolbar, which is nothing more than a menu added to the taskbar.

In case you need to move files to and from these directories, there's the possibility to integrate these locations inside open/save dialog suggestions, as well as copy and save menus. Although you initially pick a single location, it's possible to fully customize the list of locations at any given moment.

Taking everything into consideration, we can state that Folder View is a practical tool you can use to integrate frequently used locations into different system parts, such as explorer toolbars, tray area, and open/save dialogs. The list of folders can be customized, making this app worth your while overall.
