The Portable Freeware Collection Forums

Hello,

I just submitted Folders Popup, a productivity utility that lets you move like a breeze between your frequently used folders!

Main features:
- All your favorite folders at your finger tip – press the middle mouse button to popup your personalized menu.
- Add, reorder, remove or rename folders in the Settings window.
- Add folders on the fly with the Add This Folder menu.
- Add any type of File Dialog Boxes to support your various software*.
- Tested on Windows XP, Windows 7 and Windows 8 with Explorer windows, File Dialog Boxes (Open, Save, etc.) and Console Window (CMD command prompt).

You can take a look here... and "Like it" if you do

Edited the entry & voted.

You should change the icon, not visible on a dark taskbar.

Good point. Done. You can re-download

PopupFolders has been updated to version 1.2

What's new:
- Use numeric menu shortcuts to launch folders in popup menu
- Display the popup menu at a fix position
- Diagnostic mode to collect support info (if user consents)
- Redesign of the Options dialog box

This new release will allow users having trouble to trigger the popup menu in some specific configurations to send me a diagnostic file that will, hopefully, help me find a solution to their situation.
