Startup Delayer
When Windows loads it's Startup file, it attempts to load every program in there at the same time. Therefore if you have quite a lot of programs starting when Windows starts, each program will try and grab CPU time so that it can load.Startup Delayer allows you to setup how many seconds after Windows has started, to load each program.

Direct Folders
Direct Folders guarantees you quick and direct access to your favorite and recent folders. Jump to any deeply nested folder in a single mouse click.
Direct Folders automatically resizes every standard file dialog, so you can see a larger number of files. Find what you looking for with less scrolling.
One of the many useful features of Direct Folders is its ability to automatically switch the folder views of open dialogs to thumbnails, list or details depending on the application you are working with. You can select your preference of file sort order to be the default as well.

FileBox eXtender
FileBox eXtender enhances Windows by adding several advanced functions to the standard Open File and Save File dialog boxes. (Note that if a program uses its own "private" dialog boxes for these functions, you won't see our FileBox buttons, sorry.)
FileBox eXtender adds two handy buttons to these standard dialogs. These appear on the right side of the Windows dialog box title bars. These buttons appear next to the minimize, restore, and maximize buttons with which you're probably already familiar.
