How To Expand Vista's Context Menu |
| |
| The right-click menu (context menu) in Explorer under Vista is quite useful and improved. Right-click a file/folder/etc, and a menu appears, letting you take a variety of actions, such as opening the file, printing it, deleting it, copying it, creating a shortcut to it, etc. |
| |
| Now if you hold down the Shift key as you right-click a file, you'll see several new menu options ! |
|
| Here are the new options you get and what each one does: |
 |
|
| Open as Read-Only: As the name says, it opens the file as a read-only file. |
| |
| Pin to Start Menu: This pins a shortcut to the file you've right-clicked in the top section of the Start menu. To remove the shortcut from the Start menu, right-click the shortcut and select Remove from this list. |
| |
| Add to Quick Launch: This adds a shortcut to your file in the Quick Launch toolbar, on the left side of the taskbar. To remove the shortcut, right-click it and choose Delete. |
| |
| Copy as Path: This copies the file name and location to the Windows clipboard, eg C:\BizFolder\2007 memo.xls. You can then paste that path wherever you want. |
