XP Folder add ons

[DEHawk]

I am looking for a way to add a new icon to the folder toolbar. I amlooking for away to create a new folder via the toolbar instead of having to right click scroll down to create one, also using the same method to rename items too.

Last is there a way to change the look of folder on only one hard drive instead of having all hard drives change.

Thanks
Zach

Hi,
What did you mean by folder toolbar? Are you referring the list of the folder options, the taskbar or some other location? May be it is something rather simply but I failed to understand so please clarify.

If you would like a shortcut located in the taskbar (Quick Launch) section that would create a new folder on your desktop with a single click, then you could accomplish this in a simply but rough way by creating a new shortcut on your desktop then moving it to the 'Quick Launch' section of the Taskbar.

Target: %windir%\System32\cmd.exe/cmd"%userprofile%\desktop\New Folder"
Start in: %windir%

Note: Replace each smiley face with a single space.

-or-

First you must select 'Show hidden files and folders' option in Folder Options applet, then right-click on Start button which would open the Start Menu under the current user's profile. This is the location of the Quick Launch under the current user's profile:
C:\Documents and Settings\current user\Application Data\Microsoft\Internet Explorer\Quick Launch
You could right-click on the right pane of the explorer window and create the shortcut directly in the Quick Launch bar (see the screenshot).

Enter the above 'Target' path for the 'Type the location of the item' field.
For the following window asking for the new of the shortcut type whatever you desire (ei. New Folder).


If what you wanted was something different please explain in detail.
