Shell Integration Settings

Top  Previous  Next

 

Shell integration settings control how FileLocator Lite integrates into the Window shell.

 

ShellIntegration_Config

 

Associate with SRF file type

Associates FileLocator Lite with the extension SRF, the default extension for a FileLocator Lite saved result file. When set double-clicking on an SRF file will launch FileLocator Lite with the given SRF criteria file loaded.

Add to a Folder's context menu

Adds FileLocator Lite to the context menu of folders and drives. This provides a convenient way to launch FileLocator Lite for a given folder through right-clicking on the folder and selecting 'FileLocator Lite...' from the context menu.

Add to a File's context menu

Adds FileLocator Lite to the context menu of files.

Replace default Explorer Search

Launches FileLocator Lite, instead of Windows Search, when Ctrl+F or F3 is pressed in Windows Explorer.

 

UAC Note: Since changing shell settings requires administrative privileges FileLocator Lite launches a separate application, ShellAdmin.exe, to actually make the shell changes. ShellAdmin.exe requires privilege escalation and therefore displays a UAC escalation request if UAC is enabled.
