I use XP, and while ExQueues is installed I have an odd problem with my startmenu folders.
When I right-click a folder and pick the Open or Explore options, nothing happens.
I uninstalled ExQueues, rebooted, and it immediately works again.
While this seems like a potentially very nice program, atm it needs some work still.
Both of these applications work fine with ExQueues for a selection of files only, but they require different commandline options to work with folders.
I was thinking this could be added to the config something like:
Hmm, interesting. I can't say I use that feature besides 'delete', so I've never noticed. Doing context menu shell extensions is pretty arcane, especially with multiple dynamic submenus like ExQueues has. It does seem weird that it would cause a problem, since it doesn't even show my submenu. Another windows 'feature' I guess heh.
As far as folder handling goes, I agree that some work needs to be done there. I'll take a look, but it may not be as soon as I would like.
If you would like to refer to this comment somewhere else in this project, copy and paste the following link:

Another thing I would like to see it do is recognise the difference between files, folders and drives selected.
I've added Defrag and Erase options to the menu using Eraser and DefragMentor Lite CL:

I was thinking this could be added to the config something like:
<CommandLineFiles value="DEFRAGME.EXE %1"/>
<CommandLineFolders value="DEFRAGME.EXE -s -c %1"/>
and perhaps a companion to <Extensions /> to define which it applies to
<AppliesTo value="all,drives,folders,files">
examples:
<Name value="Extract"/>
<AppliesTo value="files">
<Extensions value="rar, 001, zip, ace"/>
<Name value="Delete"/>
<AppliesTo value="folders,files">
<Name value="Defrag"/>
<AppliesTo value="all">
