Shell Tools: Add copy URL, copy file name and more to Windows shell
by Brad Linder Apr 4th 2008
Tired of right-clicking on a file and selecting properties or rename in order to copy the file name to your clipboard? Shell Tools adds a Copy Filename feature to the Windows right-click context menu, plus several other useful utilities. You can choose which components to install, and once they're installed, you can choose selectively which ones to enable, so there's no need to clutter your context menu any more than you're comfortable with.
Here are a few of the tools included:
- Copy Filename - Does pretty much what you'd expect
- Filenote - Adds notes to a file by creating a text file with the same name
- Show hidden files - Quickly toggles the Windows show hidden files option
- FontLoader - Adds load/unload/install/uninstall options to the context menu for font files
- CopyURL - Copies URL information from favorites/internet shortcuts to the clipboard
- Fresh Icons - Forces Windows to rebuild icons when for shortcuts and files with the wrong shortcut
- Register Server - Adds register/unregister server commands to the context menu for some DLL, OCX, and EXE files

That is, until I tried the game.
The mechanics of the game are very simple. You are a small red square, ...
