Opus is a windows explorer replacement it's not an add-on. I think
what you want is
an explorer add-on but I don't know of anything that deals with
just the status bar itself. However, Opus will do what you want. I
think they give you a 60-day trial if I remember right. It has a
little bit of a learning curve and it can do so much stuff... a
person needs that 60 days. If you check out their forum, you can
get a betting understanding of what it can do.
| Does Opus let you customize the Explorer Status Bar or just its
own?
