@the_watcher - I'm on Win 8.1 and don't use Windows Explorer that often so I can't really verify. I use CubicExplorer.

billon: updated, thanks

Does anyone know of a way I could use this as a replacement "Sendto" menu. There's no software I've found that can do it. I would love to make my Sendto menu more portable when reinstalling Windows.

@MnX: nice find. :)

AdrianK_IT on 2012-07-20 19:25

Almost perfect! All it lacks is the ability to run a slideshow in random order.

AdrianK_IT on 2015-03-17 15:30

Been experimenting with this app again; was looking for a simple slideshow viewer that responded well to voice commands, for use with a Windows 8.1 tablet. Very good for that; still would like to see a random order option.

@webb. Good work and interesting points made by yourself and the developer. Now we know why no documentation exists on SF. More might use this if a detailed overview was available describing what it does and its usefulness compared to similar apps.

Midas on 2015-11-03 15:11

@webb: excellent work!

Would it too much to ask you to repost the author's reply to KuShellExtension official forum topic -- which I have just added?

BTW, author's binary repo includes both 32 and 64-bit Mingw and VC2013 versions, up to release #37 (dated 2014-05-27)...

xp-AntiSpy v3.98

webfork on 20 Nov 2020
  • 572KB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 16 Jun 2014
  • Suggested by Andrew Lee

xp-AntiSpy is allows you to easily enable/disable usually unnecessary or undesirable Windows features (e.g. Messenger, Media Player's automatic codec download, language bar (ctfmon.exe), etc.). As the name suggests, the program was originally focused on preventing privacy-sensitive elements, but has expanded to many others, including enabling hidden features like a command-line prompt in context menu and an increase in the maximum number of half-opened TCP connections (helpful for P2P applications).

Category:
Runs on:Win2K / WinXP / Vista / Win7
Writes settings to: Windows registry. Note that if you create a system profile(s), it writes to HKEY_USERS.
Stealth: ? No

How to extract: Download the ZIP package and extract to a folder of your choice. Launch xp-AntiSpy.exe.

What's new?
  • Reworked setting Hide shortcut arrow because it was not always working on 64bit systems.
  • Removed setting Deny access to 16-Bit-Applications from Suggested profile
  • Fixed several errors occurring on 64bit systems
  • Added Feature:
    The menu Profiles now contains the entry Check profile at logon. If there’s a check mark in front of, the xp-AntiSpy will check the current selected profile everytime you logon to your system. If a setting does not conform to that profile you will be presented a dialog window, asking to reapply the profile.
  • Added feature:
    Due to the amount of settings in the xp-AntiSpy it get’s complicated if you look for a special one. So I added a search field which can be enabled by selecting the menu Special>Show search field. Once you enter a search term it will be searched in all setting names and the according info text for that setting. Then only the matching settings will be presented to you in the overview. To reset the search, just press the escape key.

@anoncow: yes, both write to the registry. Seconfig is a bit more strict in some areas, while xp-Antispy has a little more flexibility in its controls.

cAPSLOCK on 2010-01-26 08:13

Well this programs JOB is to write to the registry. ;) So we shouldn't worry too much about that eh?

anoncow on 2010-01-27 02:04

The problem with the internet is that, even when you spell out and try to avoid something, that something happens anyway.
Notice "which is fine in their case"!
And about the JOB, the beggining of that sentence:
"Don't they both need to write to the registry TO DO THEIR THING"

The question is what's the difference between the two.

Index Your Files v5.0.2.6

lwc on 7 Jul 2023
  • 1MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 16 Sep 2018
  • Suggested by Rafael Castro

Index Your Files allows you to search through all your files or folders on local or networked drives. Searching can be done by name, date, size, location etc., and boolean operators are available to to perform multiple keyword searches. You can invoke Windows Explorer context menus on found files to perform operations such as drag/drop, copy, rename, delete etc. It also includes internal viewers for text, HTML and image files.

As the name implies, the program must index the area before searching, but afterward searches almost instantly.

Note: v5.0.2.6 is effectively the last freeware version of IYF. The current version is named "IYF Pro", and is an extreme nagware (as described by webfork here) that is effectively just a commercial demo, so we have decided not to update this entry, but link to the Internet Archive for download of the last freeware version.

I liked the program and am trying to use it for indexing a network drive. I'm indexing through a DSL connection that occasionally drops. The index takes about 10 hours for 1.5 million files and the drive size looks on the order of 2.5 TB.

When it drops the connection during this time - is there any way to recover and go on from where the drop occurred?

For a scheduled index - is this incremental or does it start over from no indexing?

Wolfghost on 2013-11-19 08:25

Link is back! Fixed

Rafael Castro on 2021-06-18 14:57

IYF for Linux, Windows or Mac.
Index Your Files is a portable, cross-platform utility that can index, import, export, save, and search folder/file information.

Index Your Files works by creating individual databases for an individual/computer. You can also create databases for the whole network allowing you to know the location of the information you need efficiently. It has access to folders and files on every network computer as long as it is powered on. But even if the machine is off, you can still access file names.

It can index Windows, Linux or Mac Disk, CD, Networks, etc., regardless of whether it is NTFS, FAT32, FAT16, EXT4, etc., as it indexes everything recognizable to the OS.

Y'z Dock v0.8.3

lwc on 7 Jul 2023
  • 2MB (uncompressed)
  • Released on 4 Jun 2003
  • Suggested by dot

Y'z Dock is a program launcher that looks like the dock in Mac OS X. To add icons, drag-and-drop a file from Explorer to the dock area. To delete icons, drag-and-drop the icon out of the dock. To remove a separator, press [Ctrl] plus drag-and-drop the separator out of the dock. Right-click on the dock gives you the context menu. Y'z Dock supports relative paths, though it does not automatically use relative paths when you add a file.

Note: This is a beta application that is no longer being developed by the author. The original language of the application is Japanese, but you are given a choice between English and Japanese when you first run the application.

I use RKLauncher. I THINK it picks up where Y'z left off. It's still being developed as far as I know, but it hasn't been updated since I started using it a year ago. It supports relative paths too, but doesn't use them by default.
