Shell integration settings control how FileLocator Pro integrates into the Window shell.
Associate with file types |
Associates FileLocator Pro with the files types: - SRF the default extension for FileLocator Pro's saved result file. - FLSX the default extension for FileLocator Pro's saved session file. - FLWX the default extension for FileLocator Pro's workspace file.
When set double-clicking on a file of any of those file types will launch FileLocator Pro opening the specified file.
|
Add to a Folder's context menu |
Adds FileLocator Pro to the context menu of folders and drives. This provides a convenient way to launch FileLocator Pro for a given folder through right-clicking on the folder and selecting the program from the context menu.
|
Add to a File's context menu |
Adds FileLocator Pro to the context menu of all files. This provides a convenient way to use FileLocator Pro to search a limited selection of files through right-clicking on a selection of files, and selecting the program from the context menu.
|
Replace default Explorer Search |
Launches FileLocator Pro, instead of Windows Search, when Ctrl+F or F3 is pressed in Windows Explorer.
|
Enable HotKey launch |
Enables launching of FileLocator Pro using the key combination WinKey+Alt+F or WinKey+Alt+F3.
Note: Hotkey support in enabled through the use of a small light weight application called FLProHotKey that is added to the system start-up list. |
UAC Note: Since changing shell settings requires administrative privileges FileLocator Pro 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.
