Finished Programs / Re: DONE: Right Click any file and create New Folder by its Name
« on: January 11, 2022, 01:32 PM »
Hi Skwire --
I've used Files2Folder countless times for at least 6 years, and it's always been a real help, so thank you for creating it.
I upgraded from Windows 7 64-bit to Windows 10 about a year ago, just tried Files2folder today, and now it's not working. I can't remember exactly, but I'm almost positive I used it with Windows 10 at least in the last few months. I try to put a test file into a folder, and after two full minutes (!), I get the following message:
"This file does not have an app associated with it for performing this action. Please install an app or, if one is already installed, create an association in the Default Apps Settings page."
I tried the following, choosing "Run as administrator" every time.
-Uninstalling it using the Unregister shell extension shortcut (which was oddly missing from the install directory -- I had to reinstall it to recreate it)
-Uninstalling it using Unregister_F2F_Shell_Extension.exe
-Using the compatibility troubleshooter on Files2Folder.exe (Windows Vista SP2 was suggested)
-Ran CCleaner on the registry
My current install directory is C:\Program Files\Files2folder. There were one or two duplicate directories I found in a search containing the same files that I deleted before reinstalling, but I still get the above error message. Any help you could provide would be greatly appreciated!
