Editorial Review of Folder Guide

One of the more annoying aspects of Windows is the time it takes to navigate to frequently used folders. Try the easy and elegant Folder Guide. You can add your favorite folders in its Settings window, or just right-click a folder in Explorer and choose Add to Folder Guide. Once you�ve set up your list, just right-click in any Explorer window or Open and Save dialog box. Choose your destination from the Folder Guide submenu, and you�re instantly redirected to that folder.

Duration of ownership: 9 Months

Strengths: FREE, and works. Get quick access to ANY folder, by adding it to your favorites folder list. Very small file.

Weaknesses: Works great in XP, works most of time in Vista

Overall Evaluation: Love it. Saves me from tons of folder clicking to get to where I want.

Duration of ownership: 2 Months

Strengths: Simple,elegant, does exactly what it says it does - and does it well, without lots of extra whistles & bells.

Weaknesses: No problems with it conflicting with anything thus far.

Overall Evaluation: This is one of those few & far between programs that you don't know you need but that turn out to be extraordinarily useful. I use Folder Guide multiple times a day.

Duration of ownership: 1 Days

Strengths: Simple, Intuitive

Weaknesses: Right click menu goes off screen when list becomes too long. User is forced to click on a little down arrow, which moves the menu one line for each click. Would have been great if a second column was started when menu became as tall as the screen.

Overall Evaluation:

Duration of ownership: 1 Days

Strengths: Works in W98, a big plus these days and works pretty much as advertised. The fact that it can be used in 'Save as' situations makes it pretty valuable.

Weaknesses: 'Save as' doesn't seem to work in MS Outlook express, but not a biggy. I guess it might be a bit helpful if there was a help file, but it's pretty intuitive and doesn't take long to figure out how to operate.

Overall Evaluation: What more is there to say, it's gonna save me a huge amount of time by not having to go through multiple windows to get to a folder.

Duration of ownership: 1 Days

Strengths:

Weaknesses: Crashes Word, at least.

Overall Evaluation: I downloaded this package and added one folder to test it out. I clicked on the File/Open diaglog in Word and.....nothing. Word just hung. So I shut down the now non-responsive Word, cranked it up again, and tried again. Same result. I then un-installed Folder Guide, opened up Word again, and all was well. Draw your own conclusions.
