Shell Tools version history

“Resize to JPG” changed to generic “Resize to” that by default saves resized images in JPG format, but can be configured to save in different format. You can specify save format by new “Save format” setting in Shell Tools settings window. The format must be supported by ImageMagick which is used for conversion.

Copy file size now copies total size of selected files in bytes, KiB and MiB. When you hold down Ctrl when invoking the command then KB or MB will be copied.
In settings window Ok, Cancel and Apply buttons were replaced by just Close button, settings are now always saved after each change.
Updated web links and other minor changes.
Fixed error “ImageMagick not found” when it was actually installed. The issue was that some ImageMagick builds lack version info resource in executable so Shell Tools was unable to detect installed version. Now version is not read from executable, but you need at least ImageMagick version 7 for Shell Tools “Resize to JPEG” functionality.

New command “Show supper hidden” in folder background menu allows you to toggle showing protected operating system files on/off. By default the command is visible in folder background context menu when you hold down Shift key when invoking context menu. You can make it always visible through ShellTool options.
New tool “Map to Windows Sandbox” in folder context menu. Select one or more folders in Explorer, right-click and choose “Map to Windows Sandbox” from contex menu to start Windows Sandbox with these folders mapped. You can configure if mapped folders are read-only by default and override that by holding down Ctrl key when choosing command. You can also provide custom Windows Sandbox config file template.
“Resize to JPEG” command has new option “Remove metadata” which is not enabled by default. Now you can also define more than 5 sizes that are listed in sub-menu.
Now you can define more than 5 image sizes to resize to.
“Resize image” works with ImageMagick 7 or newer. Improved detection of ImageMagick from system path and registry.
