"Create New Note" button: Clicking this button opens a window prompting you to name the widget. Enter the name and click "OK" to create a widget that serves as a note. This widget creates a folder with a unique number as its name, where it saves a ".txt" file, which is used as a read/write file. The folder is located at: C:\Users\"YourUser"\AppData\Roaming\WFolder.
When widgets are created, moved, or modified, their configuration is saved. Therefore, when you restart the application or if it closes unexpectedly, the widgets will be in place with their respective customizations. Each widget creates its own folder and its own ".txt" file.
If you delete the widget (by clicking its "X"), all traces of the folder and the ".txt" file will be completely removed. Closing the application, shutting down/restarting the PC, or any other type of "closure" will not delete anything. Be careful.
Widget Title Bar Options
Name assigned to the note. This can be changed by double-clicking, typing the new name, and pressing "Enter".
Folder icon: Opens the folder where the note for that widget is located, in C:\Users\"YourUser"\AppData\Roaming\WFolder.
3. Color palette icon: Displays a customization submenu*.
4. Eye icon: Toggles the widget's visibility in the window menu (Alt + Tab).
5. Up/Down arrow icon: Toggles the widget's background content.
6. Minimize icon (-): Hides the widget from all sides. To unhide it, go to the "Widgets > Show Hidden Widgets" menu or right-click the hidden widgets icon and select "Show Hidden Widgets".
7. Close symbol (X): Deletes the widget, its folder, and its note file. Be careful. Back up/copy your data.
*Customization Submenu
In this submenu that appears when you click the color palette icon, you can assign colors to the title bar, the title text, and the background (where the widget text is located). The note text and menu text share the same color. There are also three sliders: two to adjust the transparency percentage of the background and title bar, and the last one to adjust the size of all the widget text.
The symbols will take on the same color as the title bar text.
Notes: 🧐
Keep in mind that WFolder operates under .NET 8. If you download versions without the runtime, you'll need to download it from the official Windows website.
The application creates two entries in the Windows registry. If you uninstall using Bulk Crap Uninstaller, you'll get more details about the leftover files.
