Windows Toolbox: Get More Out of Explorer With FolderBox
In many cases, moving or copying files
from one folder to another involves opening multiple
Explorer windows and then futzing with their sizes and
positions to make dragging and dropping the files between
them easy. Instead of shelling out for a third-party file
manager that lets you carve a single window into multiple
folder panes, try BaxBex Software's free
FolderBox.
This simple Explorer extension adds an extra folder pane to
Explorer. Just install the program and choose
View, Explorer Bar,
FolderBox. The program works with all
versions of Windows and supports most file views (except
Thumbnails). FolderBox remembers the folder's window-pane
arrangement when you reopen it in a new Explorer session.
It even works with Internet Explorer windows.
