PlacesBar Editor Description

PlacesBar Editor is a small OS enhancement tool whose purpose is to help you modify the common file dialog in Windows 2000/ME/XP/Vista and Office. When you open, save or browse for a file, your system reveals a common file dialog box that includes a few shortcuts in the left side pane (called ‘Places Bar’). Although you can customize those places by altering registry entries, rookies may not handle the process perfectly. Plus, there’s lot of work to be done as you need to dig throughout the entire registry. This particular tool helps you edit Windows and Office dialogs from a single working environment without too much hassle. Simple looksYou are welcomed by a simple layout that includes only a few configuration parameters in the main window. There’s support for a multi-tabbed panel that allows you to easily switch between the Windows and Office setup features. How it worksPlacesBar Editor gives you the possibility to disable the default Windows folder and replace it with a user-defined one. You are allowed to alter five directories in the Windows configuration data and ten folders for Office. When it comes to modifying a directory in Office, you can specify the folder name and provide the location. Saving the new configuration settings can be accomplished with a single click. Upon successful actions, the utility reveals a popup message informing you about the current task. Testing and restoring optionsPlacesBar Editor implements a testing feature that helps you view how the changes are applied to your system and gives you the freedom to easily restore the default settings and roll back any changes made to your OS in case you are not happy with the results. An overall efficient OS enhancement tool All in all, PlacesBar Editor provides a straightforward software solution for helping you enhance the overall functionality of your Windows operating system and Office app. Thanks to its intuitive layout, it is suitable for rookies and professionals alike.
