Hello ,

Good news:

It has useful, additional tools, like categorized bookmarks, a file search tool (embedded directly to the dialog box), and a file/folder recall tool. Supported is Drag and Drop - just drop your favorite folder to the toolbar in the selected category. It works with Microsoft Office XP Dialogs (with some limitations), browse for folder dialogs, Windows Explorer Favorites. Very easy to use. It also has 16 great looking skins. Save your time when browsing folders, and opening files with AcFolders.

Why are you resurrecting such ancient threads?  They probably haven't been updated because there don't seem to have been any developments in dialog box extenders for 10 or 15 years or even more.

You might try PowerPro.  It too is a very old program but despite its age, the author is still maintaining it, to a limited extent.  Dialog box extension is only part of what it can do.  Configuring it is not for the faint-hearted.  The link is for the mailing list, as that's now the only place you can get up-to-date files and support.  You have to be logged in as a user to access files, but getting an account is free.

Alternatively, you might try Listary.  It's not a dialog box extender as such and is a different way of working. Its main features are search files, launch apps, quick switch, web search.  "Quick switch" means that Alt-Tabbing between (supported) file managers and the dialog box of, say, and editor, will point the dialog box to the directory the file manager is looking at.
