Categorizer

If you ever had to search for an old file that you just vaguely remember storing on your computer, then you know how irritating it can be. In a way, the entire process is like going back in time and attempting to read your mind. Ideally, you should handle files and folders as soon as you grab them to avoid all the confusion later on.

Then again, if you just decided to start organizing your data, then you need to consider employing the help of an organizer. As the name suggests, Categorizer is a tiny tool that enables you to set labels for your folders so that you can find them easier whenever necessary.

The application does not need installation, so simply download and you are ready to get started with file management. Since the app will make changes to Windows Explorer, it is recommended that you run it with an Administrator account, as otherwise you will get an error.

The program does not come with an interface, as its role is to reside in the context menu of Explorer. However, you do get a popup message when launched that explains that you need to press the OK button to register the tool. Following this easy step, you should be able to view it in its designated location and you can start labeling your directories.

The labeling part is as simple as it gets and it simply entails specifying a name for the folder and then pressing OK. Take note that the application solely works with folders and not files. If you want to organize the latter, then you may need the help of other third-party tools.

In the eventuality that you are looking for something lightweight and casual to label your folders so that you can find them easier later on, then perhaps you can consider giving Categorizer a try.
