What You Can Do
In Windows Explorer record a script as you
copy, cut, rename, delete, zip folders and files.
Playback the recording by clicking an icon on your desktop.
Open a program or document (as bat files do) :
- Replay your script to start a program or multiple programs in sequence with one click.
- No need for DOS batch jobs and Visual Basic Scripting.
Rename one or many photos or files by adding:
- an identifier
- a unique number
- the file modified date
- today's date
Keep multiple copies of a file by renaming it to a unique
name.
Copy and rename files at the same time.
Regularly save important files to a server or
backup drive.
Preview renames to avoid mistakes.
All file management is documented in log files.

script writer for NON-programmers. Just fill in forms
Why it's so easy
In You Can Record and More you can record your file copies, cuts, renames, deletes, zips and application file/document opens while you work in Windows Explorer, an application you know.
In Windows Explorer you select the files and folders as usual by left clicking. Right click and select You Can Record and More from the popup menu.
In You Can Record select the action you desire: copy, cut, delete, rename, zip or open program/document.
When Windows Explorer completes the action it is recorded in You Can Author. You Can Author commands representing Explorer file actions are inserted into the script in You Can Author.
You Can Author sentences are easy to understand English comands but you don't need to learn anything to record and playback. You Can Author creates a Microsoft® Visual Basic Script and, in the freeware version, places an icon on your desktop.
Best of all you don't need to know any computer language. You Can Author scripts lets you know if there are unexpected problems, for example a missing file you wanted to delete.
