Ogni Folder Option Fixer

Ogni Folder Option Fixer is a straightforward application that gives you the possibility to hide the "Folder Options" feature in Windows, as well as to make it visible again with just a couple of clicks.
This way, you can prevent other PC users from changing the mouse clicking mode for opening files (single or double clicks), viewing hidden folders, hidden empty drives and known extensions, and other aspects. Moreover, you can use this app to restore "Folder Options" if it was previously deactivated by a malware agent.

Easy installation and interface

The setup operation is a speedy job that shouldn't give you any trouble, since there are no special options, mandatory software tools, or third-party modules involved. It creates two .bat files in the installed directory, which are accessed every time you want to hide or restore "Folder Options".
When it comes to the interface, Ogni Folder Option Fixer has a single and small window that contains only the two buttons necessary to hiding and restoring "Folder Options". Just keep in mind that you must launch it with elevated rights.
After clicking on one of these options, the program shows a notification message in the center of the screen to let you know that you must restart the computer in order to apply modifications. This is necessary for both the hiding and restoring settings.
