it from RecentX and drop it in to any other application such as Microsoft Word, Microsoft Excel,
Adobe Acrobat Reader, Notepad etc.

Drag and place the
Sidebar to any edge of your desktop that is
convenient to you.

Certain applications do not notify
RecentX about the files/folders accessed. In such cases, you can just
drag and drop those files/folders on to the
Sidebar or the RecentX window.

To paste items in to multiple folders at the same time, choose "Paste Here" after selecting multiple items in the list.

RecentX matches the keywords with
the "Name" of a recent item. To match the keywords with the "Address" of
a recent item, prefix the keywords with the tilde (~) character. For
example: If you specify ~C:, RecentX will list all recent items in C
drive.
-
Accessing a recent item is more comfortable
when you reduce the size of the RecentX window and place it very near to the sidebar. This reduces
strain on your eyes and hands.
