Generate Folder is designed to assist users in quickly creating directories from any selected file. This is performed by a simple click in the “Send to” context menu item.

The program does not come with a standard setup GUI and users will have to run the Command Prompt in order to install it. Uninstalling follows the same pattern.

The necessary command line parameters are /in and /un (the former for installing the program, the latter for uninstalling it). While this operation is not really complex, users that are not familiar with issuing command line options will find the lack of a proper setup interface frustrating.

Perhaps future versions will attempt to fix this, since there really is no reason not to have an intuitive installer.

Once loaded, the resource is found in the context menu of any file, under the “Send to” Windows-default option.

Users need to select the desired file, right click it and then navigate to the “Generate folder” option. Once it is used, the program automatically moves the document to a folder with a matching name (if available).

If no such directory exists then, the resource creates a new folder, with the same name designation. This is a nice touch since, in essence, the program combines two separate functions: creating a new folder and relocating a file.

Since this is all performed with a single click, one can say the program is highly efficient. In keeping up with the lack of a setup GUI pattern, the software itself does not have an interface.

Everything is performed in the context menu. However, this is not a drawback in any sense, as there would not be any use for a proper GUI. There are no settings to tweak and no menus to browse. This application is simple and efficient, like all programs should be!
