Quicklaunch Folder Thread last updated on 2005-10-28 02:07:28

I know there are many topics about "how can I change whats in my quicklaunch folder" but this one is different. I have also searched through the forus and cannot find the answer.

Anyways, I wanted to know how you could make it so that in your quicklaunch folder when you right-click the desktop, you can make a subfolder which will open when you put your mouse over it, just like in the programs folder. I tried adding a folder in and it will not display at all in the quicklaunch menu. I have tried adding the shortcut to a folder, and while it displays it requires you to click on it and it will open in the folder manager, instead of expanding with the contents of the folder like I wanted.

Any help is appreciated, thanks for reading...

as an explorer window or popup? In the popup, you just add folders inside the quicklaunch folder deep within your Documents and Settings.

make sure you're using a !PopupDynamicFolder instead of a plain !PopupFolder

in a submenu of a popup:
*Popup "QuickLaunch" !PopupDynamicFolder:"$QuickLaunch$"

as its own popup, have something call:
!PopupDynamicFolder "$QuickLaunch$"

this is wat i found:

IF QuickLaunch
*Popup "quicklaunch" "!DynamicFolder:$QuickLaunch$*.lnk"
ENDIF

is this set right for having subfolders?

look in "$personalDir$popup.rc"
OR
"$ThemeDir$theme.rc"
OR
"$ConfigDir$popup*.rc"

if its not there, then add it into your personal popup.rc
