Extension Manager™ is designed to install, remove or copy QuicKeys 2 extensions. You also can use Extension Manager to turn installed extensions on or off.
Double-clicking on the Extension Manager icon will display the Extension Manager dialog box.
The New Extensions list displays extensions or new versions of extensions that are in the same folder as the Extension Manager application and are not installed in QuicKeys 2.
The Current Extensions list displays extensions that are currently installed in QuicKeys 2.
The amount of disk space the listed or selected extensions use is displayed above the lists.
Note: This is not an indication of how much memory an extension will require when it is installed. It is an indication of how much disk space is used or will be required.

Managing Extensions
Extension Manager also lets you copy, delete or turn installed extensions on and off.
To Copy Extensions
1) Select the extension(s) you want to copy.
2) Click the “Copy” button.
3) Select the drive and folder to which you want to copy the selected extensions. (If you wish, you can rename the extension by typing a different name in the “Save extension as:” field.)
4) Click the “Save” button to begin copying.
To Delete Extensions
1) Select the extension(s) you want to delete.
2) Click the “Delete” button. Extension Manager will ask if you are sure you want to remove the selected extensions.
3) Click “Remove”.
To Turn an Extension On or Off
Turning an extension off will leave the extension installed in the QuicKeys 2 folder, but QuicKeys 2 will not load the extension at startup. This will save memory.
1) Select the extension(s) that you want to turn on or off.
2) Click the “Turn on” (or “Turn off”) button.
Extensions that are “on” are listed in black text. Extensions that are “off” are listed in dimmed text.
When you are finished using Extension Manager, click the “OK” button to quit. You must restart your Macintosh before any changes will take effect.
