Finished Programs / Re: DONE: Right Click any file and create New Folder by its Name
« on: January 04, 2020, 01:06 PM »
I resolved the error message: (and here's what I did to fix it)
_________________________________________________
FYI:
I'm running Win 7
My user account is a member of the admin group
I use 7-zip via the context menu to unzip archives
_________________________________________________
When I install an OS, I create a folder right off C:\ called "Portable Apps"
This is where I place all sort of apps that don't install themselves into C:\Program Files...
Screenshot of my basic setup....
What I normally do (but it wasn't working):
I usually download an archive to "downloads", unzip it to a self-named sub-folder in downloads, and then move that folder with the unzipped contents to my C:\Portable Apps\ directory.
What I did differently::
Instead of unzipping the archive to a sub-folder in the downloads directory, I unzipped it DIRECTLY to it's own sub-folder in C:\Portable Apps\
Once it was unzipped directly into the directory it will remain permanently, I ran the .exe with with admin rights (from the context menu), and it registered (this step always worked though).
I then right clicked on the help.txt file for F2F and chose "Files 2 Folder" and wallah!
No more error!!!
HTH anyone else with the problem...
This file does not have a program associated with it for performing...
