How to Make FileBoss the Default Folder Viewer

Using FileBoss as the Default Folder Viewer

At your discretion FileBoss can be used as the default viewer (e.g. instead of Windows Explorer) for File Folders. It is simple to set up and simple to control.

Highlights

Listing on Context Menus

This is the default option. It puts the FileBoss command on the shell context menus for file folders and drives. (Note that is it not on the context menus for virtual folders such as My Network, My Computers or, on some systems, My Documents.)

Common Popup Menu

FileBoss can be set as the Default Viewer for File System Objects

FileBoss can be set to be the default viewer for File Folders. Meaning that it will be displayed when a folder on the Desktop or in other Windows listings is double-clicked.

Easily Configured

You are in control of how, and how much, FileBoss is integrated into the Windows' Shell. FileBoss will not intrude where it is not wanted.

To Change Shell Integration Options

Use the Options | Program Options... command from the main menu (or click its command button) and select Windows Integration from the list of option pages on the left side.

Options for Integrating FileBoss with Windows
