I'm looking a "frequent" menu hack?
What is the number for "frequent" ?

the first item is 33284 the second 33285 and so on. However as these entries change as you use the program I don't know if there's any use for them

As an observation, it's curious that "Recent Folders"
is available as a menu ID (to induce the popup independent of the menu itself [32945] - also as a custom keyboard element), yet the semantically similar "Frequent" is not (well, at least not in any practical sense).
Hobgoblins and inconsistencies are rife within the seminary of Nikosian Logic...

I know K has re-jiggled his x2 installation
But there's one thing I've wanted do, and that's to change the right-click popup in a blank space in the file list.
Right-click in a blank space
New File
New Folder
....
I've wanted to add Save Folder Settings to this list.
I'm sure if I get one 'hack' though it'll just whet my appetite.
Also don't want to agitate the internal checks / md5 / warez checks it does.
Hurt my head, couldn't be bothered after that.
And like many of us, may have grumbled, then put up with it...

That's what the xplorer2
"context-menu sub-menu thingy" © is for - just use
Organise -> Add new -> Actions -> 'Folder Settings -> Save' and you can save folder settings whenever you like by right-click. Of course, then you probably would want to add the Clear settings, etc, too... but your own clutter is your own mess.
Ok, it's not the same menu as you wanted it in, but even though this
"context-menu sub-menu thingy" © is horribly thought out in typical Nikosian-fashion, it's not
wholly unusable.

Thanks for that. I recalled seeing the xplorer2 menu, but never got around to using it.
The entry is available when you right-click a file (not blank space)... I recalled it working in the blank space?
Anyhow, it's good enough for my needs
