What it is:
Pathbuddy is a program that lets you define hotkeys for selecting folders in almost any program's Open & Save dialogs and in the file Explorer. You can immediately change to predefined folders through hotkeys.
For example:
You are using an application and select "Save As". You are prompted with a Save dialog and the current folder is "C:\My Documents\". You would like to save the file to "D:\Examples\". All you have to do to change the folder is hit the Hotkey combination* you defined earlier for "D:\Examples\". Now, the current folder is "D:\Examples\" and you can save the file as usual. This also works with the file Explorer.
*You have to set your mouse pointer over the field where you normally enter the filename. For more details see section: How to use
How to use:
Adding hotkeys:
You can add, edit and remove hotkeys on the main Pathbuddy screen. To open
it, click on the pathbuddy icon 
in the system tray.
Using the hotkeys:
Open & Save dialogs:
To use Pathbuddy with Open & Save dialogs (the ones that appear when you select Open or Save from an application) you have to:
1. set your mouse pointer position over the space were you would normally enter the filename.
2. hit the hotkey combination (Winkey + "key"). The Winkey is the key with the Microsoft Logo on it.
3. that's it.
File Explorer:
If you are using the file Explorer you just have to hit the hotkey combination, regardless of your mouse position.
Quicklist:
You can also display a "Quicklist" of the predefined directories with the Quicklist hotkey (predefined to "Winkey + A"). With it, you can scroll through your predefined folders and select one.
Installation:
Download the Pathbuddy zip file. Create a folder like "C:\Programs\Pathbuddy" and unpack the contents of the downloaded zip file into it. Run the Pathbuddy.exe, a link in your Startup folder will be created that will load Pathbuddy on Startup.
Pathbuddy does not alter your system files.
