Managing Windows folder or its subfolders has always been a pain ever since I jumped on to WM5. It's slow no matter how powerful the processor is. If the processor is slow, it is painfully dreadfully slow. Hence, I came up with the idea of a program just to manage commonly used subfolders under the Windows folder quickly and conveniently.



In short, WinXplore is like a mini and simple file explorer targetted at "special folders", e.g. ringtones folder, WAV files location, VOL files location, Start Menu folders, etc.



The application offers many different types of cut/copy/paste functions as well as file delete/rename. It even includes a simple shortcut creator now.

So, you can now use this application instead of any other full featured file explorer (or even the default file explorer) to add ringtones, SMS tones to the desginated folders in a much much faster way. No more irritating wait icon that most (or all) file explorers show so often when you access the Windows folder in WM5/WM6.

Nope, but that's an interesting suggestion. Will consider implementing that in the next version.

Pending features for future versions:
1) Show/hide folders in the file list.
2) Reload folder list (dropdown list)
3) Include subfolders under "Favorites"
4) Include "My Pictures" and "My Music"
5) Functions to create/delete/rename folders
6) Send files via IR/BT/mail (KIV)
7) Internal ASCII/unicode/UTF8 text viewer (KIV)
8) Internal hex viewer (KIV)

At the moment, I can confirm features 2 to 4 will be in the next version. Feature 1 and 5 are linked and will take a little more time to implement. As for feature 6, I need to research into how it is done.

Coolz..Thanks gain vicott. :grin:

This application is very useful indeed.

Just one feedback, when I used it to create a shortcut for an exe file, the shortcut ended up with the file extension .exelnk instead of .lnk, need to rename it to get it working.

Can remedy in next version? TIA. :grin:
