Unfortunately Windows does not provide a standardised system for adding a user-defined description to files and folders.

For example, if you select a folder and click the Copy File button, that folder including all of its contents are copied. File filters let you control which items within folders are processed.

A label has a name, and can define colors and font styles that modify the appearance of labeled files. Labels can also be used to override the default icon image for a file or folder, or define a status icon that can be shown in a separate column to flag important files. They can also cause a file or folder to become "pinned" to the top of the file list. text/html 2023-08-18T23:06:21+00:00 Anonymous (anonymous@undisclosed.example.com) https://docs.dopus.com/doku.php?id=file_operations:renaming_files&rev=1692399981&do=diff There are three main ways to rename files in Opus: * Inline Rename refers to editing the names of files directly in the Lister (inline).

Undo The Undo command can (usually) be used to undo the most recent action. Most actions can be undone - for example, if you rename a group of files incorrectly with a wildcard, you can undo the rename fairly easily. File deletes, however, can not be undone unless the delete was done to the recycle bin.

It aims to make it much more practical to run as a standard user, by allowing administrator operations to be performed by temporary elevations of access permissions. When UAC is enabled (which it is, by default), users and the programs they launch will have standard user privileges by default. This means that important operating system locations (like the
