Show folder on desktop

Show folder on desktop is a small software application designed with a single goal in mind: to help you view and access the content of a folder directly from your desktop. In order to run the program correctly, you need to have Microsoft .NET framework deployed on your system.

The GUI is straightforward and gives you the possibility to set up the dedicated parameters in no time. A help manual cannot be found in the package but you can manage to tweak the settings on your own because they are very easy to decode.
