Folder2MyPC

Folder2MyPC is a software tool that was developed in order to help individuals create shortcuts for folders and programs to My Computer, with backup and restore capabilities.

Surprise-free install and clean environment

You are required to go through an installation process that does not take long, and you are brought to a straightforward interface. It is built with several tabs, which enable you to navigate through all the available options with great ease. It contains boxes, buttons and a few drop-down menus. All user categories can find their way around it with great ease, including those with little or no previous experience with computers.

Manage, backup and restore folders and programs

This software utility enables you to create a shortcut for a specified folder. This can be chosen with the help of a directory browser, as the “drag and drop” feature is not supported. Aside from that, it is possible to input a title and tip, as well as choose a custom icon from a long, built-in list.

This is also available for programs, the only difference being that you can also add them to a Control Panel subcategory (Accessibility Options, Performance and Maintenance, Appearance and Themes etc.).

Another tab aids you in editing or removing already created shortcuts, as well as creating backups for your items, so as to prevent sudden data loss. Restoring is also possible, as well as changing the language.

Help contents are not provided, yet seeing how simple it is to work with this app, it becomes apparent they are not actually necessary.

Bottom line

To conclude, Folder2MyPC is a pretty efficient piece of software. It has a good response time, a user-friendly environment and it does not burden the computer’s performance. It is important to keep in mind that it does not work on 64 bit operating systems, and it has not been updated in quite a while.
