FileMenu Tools customizes the context menu of Explorer, adding built-in utilities for file and folder operations. Users can add customized commands that run external applications, copy/move to a specific folder or delete specific file types; customize the "Send to..." submenu; and enable/disable the commands which are added by other applications to the context menu.
The built-in utilities allow the user to run a given program with arguments, copy/move to a folder, copy path, UNC path, Internet path, name or content to clipboard, view or change attributes, split/join a file, register/unregister a DLL, find and replace, advanced rename, synchronize two folders, delete locked files, create symbolic link, calculate and verify SHA/MD5 checksums, shred files, change folders icon, and many more.
Supports 32 or 64-bit automatically. Note that this program has gone shareware so we are linking to the last freeware version (thanks billon) and Userfriendly).

v7.0.5
Until home page comes back online: http://www.softpedia.com/get/PORTABLE-SOFTWARE/System/System-Enhancements/FileMenu-Tools-Portable.shtml
v7.0.3
Website is gone now (shortly after the 7.0.3 update, the website was replaced with a notice by the website host that it wasn't currently available, and now that notice has been removed and all you see is a logon page).
v7.0.3
Yes, it does! But the extracting instructions refer to the portable version, not the installer! Download the "FileMenuTools-portable.exe" file, not "FileMenuTools-setup.exe".
v6.8
ESET says 6.8 installer includes OpenCandy...
v6.8
FileMenu Tools now at version 6.7.1. The link supplied by smaragdus on 27 January is still good.
v6.7
FileMenu Tools 6.7 has been released.
I will provide direct download links to both installer and portable version:
http://www.lopesoft.com/fmtools/FileMenuTools-setup.exe
http://www.lopesoft.com/fmtools/FileMenuTools-portable.exe
since the developer is trying to lure the users with some online downloaders.
