Post New Requests Here / IDEA: PreDelete
« on: January 08, 2009, 10:28 AM »
Since I know nothing about programming, I have no idea if this would qualify as a Coding Snack but I would like to have a program that:
1. Gives me a place (a folder will do) - other than the recycle bin - to send anything I am not sure is safe to delete.
2. Can be restored to its original place - just like using the Restore buttton from the recycle bin does.
Yes, I know I can - and in fact I do - use a folder to hold such items until I am ready to send them on their way. The problem occurs when, for whatever reason, I want to restore something only to realize - I don't remember where it came from.
Maybe you could call it Halfway House or Limbo or I'll Be There. What do you think?
Thanks.
P.S. On my system, a huge number of files are sent to the Recycle Bin daily so it must also be emptied every day. A program like this should be useful for many people.
