One of the features I missed the most from XP was a little Dialog Box Extender utility called FileBox eXtender. This simple program allowed you more control over your save and open file dialogs. For instance, when I use the open file dialog in a program I don’t want to switch to “details view” and “sort by date” every time I open the dialog. The settings I set should be automatic. Filebox does all this and more. There are tons of features such as being able to jump straight to a saved folder or recently used folder to drop your files when saving. You can also roll up windows so you can get your dialog boxes out of the way when you need to locate a place to save your file. The “window shade”-like button transfers to regular explorer windows as well so you can reclaim some screen real estate. Also included is a pin feature that will prevent any window you “pin” to the desktop from being covered by any other windows. FileBox used to be a shareware utility but its owners made it free when they didn’t think they could make the jump to Vista. In an unexpected move though they released a new version (also FREE) that is now Vista compatible.
