QuickWayToFolders is a portable utility that allows quick access to folder contents.

You can access the contents of your hard drive through a customizable interface but by default is minimalistic. You can add an image to the background of the main panel if desired. This main panel displays the directory contents along with several buttons that allow you to navigate to the desktop, go forward/backward, and open up File Explorer.

Once unpacked QuickWayToFolders sits in the systray until needed. Upon opening, you can select various aspects of the app, including background colors, image placement, filter, and subfolder inclusion. You can also set it to remember the last position, hide on execution, and more.

It comes with four display possibilities:

-Desktop: Act like your desktop, with the possibility of navigating through subfolders
-Small Browser: Act like windows explorer
-Menu: Display folder content in the menu
-Multiple Folders Menu: Display multiple folders contents in a single menu
-Each entry is added to the taskbar notification area (near to windows clock)
