How To Use This Free Windows Tweaker Software?
To use this software, go to its download location. You can use the link added at the end of this review. Windows Tweaker is available in portable and in installer version. Its your choice which version you want to download.
On its interface, you can access any menu and tweak settings available under that particular menu. For example, you can access RIGHT-CLICK menu to customize send-to menu items of right-click context menu. You can either add a file or a folder to send to menu.
This menu also helps to add Windows Notepad to context menu, provide add copy to folder option, move to folder, send to folder options. But these copy/move/send options didn’t work for me.
