There is a favorite folder in Internet Explorer, it is convenient for us to put some of the frequent sites into which, the next visit as long as the direct choice, it is indeed convenient for us fools users. However, the author sat down carefully on IE's favorites to do some research, found that it can be used for us, to complete some little-known but very practical functions. In this will find their own use of IE favorites list, and share with you.
1. I'll use your favorites.
I believe everyone must be on the Internet café! (Nonsense!) Then, we have access to a large number of web sites, and their collection into the favorites, access is also convenient. Do you want to keep it for yourself when you see someone who collects such a good web site? However, in Windows we can only have one favorite folder. So how do we get to share favorites with other people?
In fact, after the author's analysis, I found that the original Favorites folder files or folders are simply placed in the Windows system in the Favorites folder to some of the corresponding Web site shortcut files. If you are using WINDOWS95, 98, or Windows Me, they are placed in c:windowsfavorites, while in Windows 2000, XP, or NT, they are stored in c:documents and Settings Username Favorites (Figure 1, mine is placed in C:documents and Settingsadministrato**vorites). Knowing this, the operation is very simple, just create a new folder under your Favorites folder, name it "someone else's favorites," and then copy all the files from someone else's Favorites folder to this folder, and use the contents of someone else's favorites the next time you start IE. At the same time using this method to collect the number of favorites has not any * *!
2. Fast Import and Export favorites
I believe we all know that Windows is a very unstable operating system, I am afraid we generally almost every few months we have to restart the setup exercise! Once we reinstall the system, the contents of the original collection are missing when we open IE again to browse the website! To re-enter a collection again too troublesome, What do we do? From the 1th point of view, the files or folders in the Favorites folder are simply shortcuts to the appropriate Web sites that are placed in the Favorites folders on the Windows system. That would be good to do, reinstall the system before the Windows folder Favorites backup, and so on after the installation system to copy the cover on the line. Note, however, that if you are using WINDOWS95, 98, or Windows Me, they are placed in c:windowsfavorites, while in Windows 2000, XP, or NT, they are stored in c:documents and Settings Username Favorites, sometimes you must back up multiple user favorites. So you can be prepared.
3, use the favorite folder to manage the program
When we install a software to the system, the installer automatically creates a shortcut to it on the Start menu, so that, for a long time, more software is installed and the Start menu appears to be bloated. We had to use a third party cleanup program to delete it. In fact, after the author's analysis found that the Start menu in Windows 9x and Windows Me under the C:windowsstart menu folder, and Windows 2000, NT, XP are placed in the c:documents and settingsadministrator"Start Menu programs, and they also point to shortcuts to software running programs. This allows us to create a new start folder under the Favorites folder in the Windows system and cut these shortcuts together with folder information (note not copy!) To the Start folder. This allows you to see a "Start" folder in your Internet Explorer favorites, which is what we start the menu with. Figure 3, using Internet Explorer favorites to manage programs on your machine does it have a flavor?
Note: The taskbar in Windows Me, Windows 2000, Windows NT, and Windows XP has a personalized menu option. The so-called "personalized menu" feature is a smart technology for Windows Me, it keeps the Start menu clean by keeping track of which programs you use every time you use your computer, and hiding programs and items that you haven't used much or used for a long time, but only accessible programs.
4. Use the favorites to write a letter
What, can I write to my favorites? Of course, if you do not have an email program installed in your machine, then I will not be able to make "bricks without straw", as long as you have installed an e-mail program (I believe no one has not installed it!)., then I can easily send a letter with the help of my favorites. Try creating a new mail folder under C:documents and Settingsadministrato**vorites, and then open Explorer, right-click, and create a new shortcut that reads "cooper@51softhelp.com ", and named" Write to Ma Zhi. " Then open Internet Explorer, and then select the "Favorites" "Letter" "Write to Ma Zhi" command, the system will automatically open its default e-mail program to write to Cooper@51softhelp.com, fill in the topic, write the contents of the letter, and add the necessary accessories can be sent, convenient, using it can also produce a hierarchical address book it!
5, hook up the ACDSee favorites
As a matter of fact, you may know sporadically that the Favorites feature is not just the Internet Explorer,acdsee have favorites, we can completely unify them to the Internet Explorerr favorites. ACDSee is located under C:documents and Settingsadministratorapplication DATAACD systemsacdseefavorites, as long as this folder is placed on the internet Explorerr Favorites Favorites A new shortcut, even if updated, makes it possible to quickly access the contents of ACDSee favorites in the Favorites folder.
