Drop Targets the Magnificent

Drop Targets are graphic drop targets

that make sorting, copying, moving and deleting files and folders easier than ever before.

Represent folders
to which files can be copied, moved or linked

Special Drop Targets
for quickly deleting files or sending them to the Recycle Bin

File and folders can be dropped from any program
that supports Drag & Drop (e.g. Windows Explorer) onto Drop Targets

Drop Targets can remain active
and visible even when FileBoss is minimized

Drop Targets can be saved and restored in sets
for reuse later. Multiple sets can be created and saved.

Drop Targets are automatically restored
when FileBoss starts if they were displayed when FileBoss last closed

and FileBoss's copy engine can be configured handle copy operations the way that is best for you. (Click here to see how.)
