Miscellaneous Software - View Hidden Files, Install Fonts, Copy Filenames to Clipboard and More via Context Menu

SUMMARY: Shell Tools adds a variety of functionality to the Windows Explorer context menu.

Shell Tools is a collection of shell extensions and utilities for Windows 2000 - Vista (32 bit) by Moon Software, providing a variety of features available via the right-click context menu in Explorer:

* AnyFile - Copy a filename to the clipboard. Create or edit a text file comment (for example, create a file TweakUiPowertoySetup.txt file comment for the application TweakUiPowertoySetup.exe).

For example, in the above screenshot, copying the selected filenames places the following in the clipboard:

D:\siw.exe
D:\spybotsd162.exe
D:\spywareblastersetup42.exe
D:\TrueCrypt Setup 6.1a.exe
D:\TweakUiPowertoySetup.exe
D:\WindowClippings.exe

* FolderBackground - Adds an option to toggle viewing hidden files from a folder's right-click menu.

* FontFile - Load, unload, install, or uninstall TrueType and OpenType fonts.

* Urlfile - Copy the URL, link, or name of an Internet shortcut to the Clipboard.

* RegisterServer - Adds options to register or unregister DLL, EXE, and OCX files.

Utility included:

* FreshIcons - Rebuild icons if the wrong ones are displayed for files or shortcuts.

After running the install file, access the "Shell Tools" Control Panel in the "Moon Software" group from the Windows Start Menu and check the boxes next to features you wish to enable (all features are disabled by default).
