This software allows users to easily modify file attributes such as type and creator, as well as other specific file properties. The tool is designed to simplify the process of editing these settings and streamline file management for individuals and businesses alike.
FileGeek, formerly known as GetInfoPro, is a software that enhances the experience of file management by allowing you to change several file attributes that you can't normally perform directly from Finder. This task makes it a great utility in our line of Mac toolboxes for systems management.
FileGeek enables you to modify several file attributes, such as Type, Creator, Invisibility, NameLocked, and HasCustomIcon. If you have used a Mac operating system prior to Mac OS X, you must be familiar with the dreaded error message "Sorry, the application that created that document could not be found." With FileGeek, you'll never have to worry about that again.
FileGeek also lets you maintain file associations and assign certain programs to open files with certain file extensions or certain file types. That means you can assign any program to open an array of different files. Furthermore, FileGeek comes with over one hundred and fifty file presets, which allows you to apply these file attributes without having to do any research at all. It covers everything from Apple's iTunes to Microsoft's MS Word 2001.
With just two clicks, FileGeek enables you to change the file attributes and properly associate the file. If you can't find the program you need to attribute a file to as a preset, don't worry; feel free to contact us about adding it in a future version.
FileGeek also allows you to modify other features of files hidden by the Finder, such as the ability to use custom icons, bundle bit, the ability to make a file hidden, and more. The option to toggle invisibility is excellent in the event that you need to hide a file or folder in a hurry, or place it out of reach for safekeeping.
To conclude, FileGeek is a great Mac utility that no user running Mac OS 9 or lower should be without! It enhances the experience of file management by allowing you to change several file attributes and offers numerous features that the Finder does not.
