Hi,
I always use advanced search to search for certain words inside pdf files in certain location, is there possibility to add Search with PDF-XChange Editor to Context Menu of folders, so it will automatically add the folder path to " Where would like to search " field, because selecting the folder each time takes time and annoying.
Thanks

Hello Jakov93,
I'm sorry, but we do not offer such an option.
However, you do have access to a Recent Searches list, which keeps track of your previously used search folders.
This feature should help you access them more quickly and efficiently.
Best regards,

Thanks Dimitar,
I think the recent folders list is not ideal way, because when I select many different folders and making a list, the list appears only when the program is open, just with closing the program, the list will gone, so you need to select the folders again and so on.
Thanks

Hello Jakov93,
The recent folder list you may find here, does not clear up at exiting the application:
Additionally, you can include frequently used folders in this list to streamline access:
..or pin them on this list:

Dear Dimitar,
My program always clear the folder list on exiting, but keep last used folder, although I pinned many folders in file menu.
So I think there is a problem with my program, with its registry ...etc
Any help please to fix it?
Thanks

I’ve noticed something similar on my setup. Even though I pin folders, only the last one shows up after restarting.

Hi all,
There should be no issue in using Dimitar's suggestion to add folders via the File -> Add a Place option:
I have tested this and all folders remain available after restarting the software. Can you please test with this option and let me know if it works for you?
Kind regards,
