NirExt 1.01

NirExt 1.01 is an excellent add-on for your Windows installation as it adds 3 useful context menu extensions to your Windows Explorer environment.

The first one is Folder Properties. This option is available in the context menu when you right-click on a folder in your file system. It allows you change the icon of any folder in your file system, and change the text that appears when the mouse cursor moves over the folder (the "Comment" field). In order to change the icon of a folder, click the "Select Icon" button. If you want to select an icon from EXE or DLL file, select the file that contains the icon you want to use, and then in the bottom icons list, select the desired icon and click the "Open" button. If you want to select an icon from .ICO file, simply select the ICO file and click the "Open" button.  Whenever you want to remove the icons and other properties from the folder, and turn it back to a regular folder, click the "Remove Folder Properties" button.

The last one is Create Shortcut+. This option is available in the context menu when you right-click on any file in your system. It allows you to instantly create a shortcut and drop it into one of the following folders: Desktop, Start Menu, Programs folder under Start Menu, Common Desktop (for all users), Common Start Menu (for all users), and Common Programs folder (for all users) under Start Menu. You can also specify a command-line options for the application, working folder, and the comment that appears when the mouse cursor moves over the shortcut. If you create a shortcut to executable file (.EXE), the description information from the executable file is automatically copied to the Shortcut Name field.
