In depth

A closer look at Better File Select

Working with a computer can mean a lot of things, but regardless of the domain of activity, file management is a mandatory thing. Since it’s also a mandatory operating system function, Windows makes sure you can perform various such tasks. However, there are various enhancements like Better File Select that want to make it easy to select only those files you need. The application works by integrating itself into the default context menu, and in order for this to be possible, you need to allow it to get installed. Core functions can’t be accessed otherwise, and there’s no executable to put it to the test. However, right clicking a file is sure to unveil the new entry with a homonymous name. As the name suggests, the application aims to make file selection a bit easier, but for this to happen, you need to select the files you want to work with. Moreover, it can’t be directly used on the desktop, because it completely relies on a File Explorer instance. As such, you need to access the desktop from File Explorer if you want to use the application’s functions there.
