FileTypesMan is a lightweight Windows file management application that lists the file types found present on your computer and lets you make changes to your file extensions and context menu entries.

The program can be run on your system by opening the executable file (there's no setup included in the process).

You can copy it on any USB flash drive or other devices, and take it with you whenever you need to gather information about each file type found on the system.

FileTypesMan boasts a clean and straightforward layout that gives users the possibility to perform most operations with just a few clicks.

As soon as you run the application, it automatically scans your PC, displays the file extensions, and provides detailed information about them, like name, description, perceived type, flags, modified time, company name, as well as product name, version, and description.

The tool lets users export the selected items to HTML, CSV, XML, or plain text format, refresh the current list, and copy the selected information to the clipboard.

What’s more, you are allowed to replace the file type for the selected item with its original extension, perform search operations, as well as customize the layout of the utility by changing the font, style, and size of the text revealed in the main window.

Last but not least, you can add a new file type to the list by giving details about the extension, type name, description, default icon, and perceived type, and applying several advanced operations (e.g. disable the “Never ask me” option, open the files automatically).

You are given the freedom to assign context menu entries for each file type by giving details about the action name and menu caption. You can manually specify the executable file or pick one from a list with running applications.

FileTypesMan proves to be a reliable application that helps you keep an eye on all file extensions found on your system, replace or add new extensions, as well as edit, delete or add context menu actions. It is suitable for beginners and professionals alike.

What's new in FileTypesMan 2.00:

  • Added new option: Don't Load Icons That May Hang/Crash (Turned on by default). When this option is turned on, FileTypesMan doesn't load file type icons if their default icon is '%1' (Some of these icons cause FileTypesMan to hang or crash when trying to load them).
