This Freeware/Donorware is all self contained Windows program and uses no registry stuff, requires nothing else to work, does not capture anything nor communicate with anything. It works only on the FILE OPEN and FILE SAVE-AS Dialog Boxes.
This Freeware/Donorware program
is designed for people who want FILE ''Details'' ''On'' 90% of the
time. It will change almost all FILE OPEN
and FILE SAVE-AS
Dialog Boxes to the ''Details'' setting. If you need
Thumbnails,
Tiles or Icons for a while just click the ''Details-FixIt''
Icon
in the Taskbar to PAUSE it or click EXIT
then restart it later. See Flash Demo below
that demonstrates what it does and how to PAUSE
it. (Recommend clicking Pause and Play button for maximum
comprehension.) The "Details" program works in some or all of
these
applications: MS
Works v8, IE v6.0 , Adobe v6 , Netscape v4.7 , Mozilla 1.7.5
, FireFox v2 , NotePad v5.1 , OpenOffice v2., Nvu v1.0 ,
IrfanView
v3.98. Note: older and some proprietary Dialog
Boxes may give undesirable results. IT DOES NOT
WORK IN WINDOWS ME. [ If anyone sends
usability feedback it will be posted here.]
The program uses a 1/2 Second delay to recognize a new Dialog Box and an 8 Second delay between resets. If you OPEN from one program and immediately switch to a different program and OPEN again, the automatic change to "Details" will not occur until the first 8 Seconds has elapsed. If you can't wait, you can still manually select "Details". If you manually switch to "List", this program will automatically change it back to "Details" every 8 Seconds. If you edit file names from inside the Dialog Boxes, it is recommended to PAUSE it because 8 Seconds probably isn't long enough to complete a filename change. The reason for the fixed delays is to minimize CPU usage.
To have Details-FixIt.exe
start up with your other favorite programs just put a shortcut
into your
''Startup'' folder. [Other users on your computer may not
like it
or want it.] Your path is probably similar to this path:
where: "YOUR-FOLDER" will be specific to your profile
or login.
