FileBox enhances Windows by adding several advanced functions to the standard Open File and Save File dialog boxes and title bar of any windows or application. FileBox adds two handy buttons to these standard dialogs. These appear on the right side of the Windows dialog box title bars. These buttons appear next to the minimize, restore, and maximize buttons with which you're probably already familiar.
FileBox can also forcibly resize the standard Windows file management dialog boxes so they're bigger, and thus easier to use if you've got lots of files in a folder through which you need to look. The two pictures below show a small part of the Windows standard Open File dialog box.
These special buttons will appear for all styles of file dialogs. The old Windows 3.1 style file dialog boxes to new "Explorer" style boxes introduced with Windows 95, and even with the latest file dialog boxes in MS Office and Windows XP to Windows 7. FileBox eXtender has a nifty option to display these buttons on Windows Explorer folders too, and this can greatly speed up navigation through today's huge hard disks.
Favorites Menu: It displays a "Favorites" menu. The FileBox Extender Configuration window allows you to add your favorite folders, files, document names, or other text items on it. You can use this to make Windows work as you want it to work (not how it wants to do things "out of the box"). As you can see, a menu of my favorite places appeared, and now I can navigate across my hard disk to where I need to go with just a single click. I've also created a "File Filters" sub-menu, which lists the file types I open frequently, such as *.zip and *.doc, which I often attach to email messages. The "Add" bottom in menu lets you add the currently-displayed folder seen in the dialog box to the Favorites list.
Recent Folders: The button with a little clock on it is the button that opens the "Recent Folders" menu. It opens a list of the folders that you most recently accessed through the Open File or Save File dialog boxes. These folders are sorted by access time with the most recent at the top. You can set how many of the recent folders are listed here, or hide this button from settings.
Always on Top Button on windows: FileBox eXtender adds also a "push-pin" button to your title bar of any windows or app. This function enable you to set any windows on top. This is great when you want to keep an eye on one program, but use another. (For example, refer to a document window in Word while typing an E-mail in another program).
Roll-up Button on windows: Another FileBox enhancement is the "roll-up" button added to top level windows. When you click it, the window is "rolled up" leaving only its title bar visible, and uncovering what was underneath it. Click that button again, and the window rolls back down. The Always on Top and Rollup commands can be also displayed on the system menu of any window.
