    Programs for creating folder hotkeys


    I want to be able to access individual folders with a custom hotkey. The built-in windows shortcut feature doesn't work because the shortcut folder has to be placed on the desktop. I used a program called ActiveKeys, but it expired and the license is way too expensive for what it does.
