How to use ToolBox
ToolBox is an application launcher with many built-in features. Read the following main instructions to use it easily and efficiently:

Placing a Shortcut to a Drive
Just right-click on an empty tile and select New - Drive from the menu. You will be prompted to select a drive letter and an icon. On Drive Tiles the Drive Letter is displayed. When you click on them the Windows Explorer is being executed and goes straight to the contents of that drive.
Placing a new Shortcut
Just drag any file from anywhere on your system, and drop it on ToolBox's surface on an empty tile. This will create a new tile on ToolBox, which will have the icon of the File. If it is an executable, ToolBox will take the first icon found in the .EXE file. In case it is a document file (e.g. .TXT) ToolBox will find the file's association (e.g. NOTEPAD.EXE) and use the associated icon (e.g. the Notepad's icon).
Placing a Shortcut to a Folder
Just Drag any Folder on an empty tile. The Windows Explorer Icon will be displayed and by clicking on it you will get instantly an Explorer Window on that Folder.
Executing an Application
Just Click (or Double-Click depending on your choice) on the applications tile.
Sending a file to an Application
Drag a document file (e.g. a .BMP file) on the tile which contains the application you want to launch and open the file (e.g. PHOTOSHOP.EXE)
Changing the Icon of a Tile
Apart from using the Properties menu command, you can drag & drop any .ICO or .ICL file on a tile and instantly you will get the properties window of that tile loaded with the icon or icons you dropped on it.
Moving Windows
You can move the main window (the one with the tiles) from its title bar (if is visible) or by holding the Ctrl key down and click and moving your mouse. Any window is moveable just by clicking and moving your mouse. All windows are dockable on your screen's border.
Resizing Main Window
You can resize the main window by it's border (it it is visible) or by using the Rows and Columns menu choices. More on these on the Menu Commands page.
Resizing Drive Sizes Window
Hold down the Shift key and click and move your mouse on to it. This window can be resized only on it's width.
Resizing Memory Monitor Window
Hold down the Shift key and click and move your mouse on to it.
