Memorize favorite folder

Postby billromero » Sat Jan 01, 2011 2:20 am

Hi,

I almost always change the files of the pictures I take and they are in a particular folder. in order to reach the folder, I have to click down about 4 levels on my folder tree.

Is there a way to way to make this folder as the default folder to open?

Thanks in advance.

When you've selected the path you want, click file -> save as, name it as whatever you want (with file ext ".bru") and place it in Bulk Rename Utility's directory.
Next, optionally, create a shortcut to it and place this shortcut where you launch Bulk Rename Utility from.
If .bru files aren't associated with Bulk Rename Utility, right click on the shortcut, then properties, then change it to:
Code: Select all
Target
"C:\<path to BRU>\Bulk Rename Utility.exe" "C:\<path to BRU>\YourFile.bru"
Start In
"C:\<path to BRU>\"

Change as necessary.

This shortcut should now enable you to start at your desired directory.

Hi!

I am trying to save the path to a folder on a network drive and get the error "Encountered am improper argument".

The status bar showing "Press ESC to cancel. Scanning folder..."


Any ideas?

Example of the name? UNC path or mapped drive letter or ?

It is mapped network drive that the error comes.
