    Looking for: Desktop Folder that shows contents on hover/click


    I had a program that did this Years. It allowed you to make a folder on the desktop, put anything in the folder you wanted, and instead of opening the folder, you could mouse over it like a right click context menu and have access to those files/shortcuts within the folder, without actually having to open the folder.

    Anyone know what that program could be? Thanks.

    :)

    display contents of folder on hover ?

    I used to have an app that let you hover the mouse over a folder and you will see the contents display in a pop up area.. similar to the right click context feature. You could then choose a shortcut from that to open - all without ever opening the folder itself.

    I cant for the life of me find that app but i want to use it to help organize my desktop.

    Any ideas?

    Mouse Hover to Show Folder Contents Preview


    I am looking to hover over a folder and get a quick read of what is inside while surfing around a poorly organized file system. Is there anything that will let me do this so I don't have to click in and click out of every folder.
