1. A word document containing images to be extracted.

2. Open the word document as an archive using 7Zip.

3. Browse for media content. Here, media files are present under ‘\word\media\’ folder. The sequence of the embedded images in the document are preserved.

4. Extract the images to any folder of your choice.

Tip!:

Use the same technique to download the images from any website by copying-pasting the webpage to a word doc and then extract the images. This method is better than saving the page to the hard disk using browser ‘Save As WebPage’  option and manually searching for the media content from the HTML reference folder.

Add a new Command

Open a Program with…

Click the ‘Add Command’ button to add a new item in the FileMenu Tools menu. We have to edit the data in the ‘Properties Window’ to make the operation functional. Consider an example; we need ‘Open with Firefox’ in the menu whenever we right click any html files. This can enabled by defining ‘File Extensions’ property in the properties window. Since this new menu should appear only for the files and not for folders we choose ‘No’ for the folders property. We can also change the icon which is displayed in the right click menu.

Properties Window

Add SendTo item

To add a item in the SendTo menu, we select the ‘SendTo’ tab and click add command. For example, if we need to add DropBox folder in the ‘SendTo’ Menu we set the following properties.

TIP! Making FileMenuTools Portable

Step1 : Install FileMenu Tools in a temporary folder.

Step2: Copy all the contents in the FileMenuTools installation folder, except unins000.dat, unins000.exe, to a new folder.

Step3: Uninstall FileMenuTools application from Add/Remove programs.

Step4: Run ‘F’ileMenuTools.exe’ from the folder which was created in Step2.

Note: We cannot make this portable with Uniextract since it is not able to unpack the setup file.
