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).

Category:
Runs on:Vista / Win7 / Win8 / Win10
Writes settings to: Application folder
Dependencies: Administrator rights (to register and unregister the shell extension)
Stealth: ? No. Windows settings are saved to the registry under HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\LopeSoft.
Unicode support: Partial. The configuration tool handles Unicode text properly, but this text is displayed only partially correct in the context menu.
Path portability: Requires manual entry of relative path (eg. ..\..\personal\work.doc)
License: Freeware (Donations accepted)
How to extract: Warning: The installer version is adware. Make sure you are using FileMenuTools-portable.exe with the following process:
  1. Download the self-extracting EXE to a folder of your choice
  2. To use the program, launch Register FileMenuTools.exe to register the shell extension
  3. Right-click on an item in the Explorer to see the menu
Other functions:

  • Close/remove: launch Unregister FileMenuTools.exe
  • Configuration: launch FileMenuTools.exe to or choose Configure FileMenu Tools from the menu.
What's new? Fixed bugs:
  • Sometimes the separators was not enabled.
  • In Calculate and verify checksums: the calculated checksum field was not updated when calculating a new checksum.
  • In Advanced renamer: the preview was not updated when changing the selected item of combo boxes with mouse or keyboard.
  • Other minor.

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

FileMenu Tools now at version 6.7.1. The link supplied by smaragdus on 27 January is still good.

v6.7

smaragdus 2015-01-27 13:51

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.

v6.6
