Version 6.0.2 of Default Folder X is available, fine-tuning our app for quickly navigating your files and folders. This release offers a solution for folks that want to quickly pop up DFX’s Quick Search window and then browse back through their file and folder history. Just hit the Down Arrow key in the empty Quick Search window and you’ll get a list you can scroll through. The most recent items are at the top.

I also got a great suggestion from Martin C. to make Command+L a keyboard shortcut to get back to the filename entry field in Save dialogs after you’ve clicked away from it. That’s also in this update. We’re all so used to hitting Command+L to enter an URL in our web browsers that it’s second nature after a couple of uses. Brilliant, Martin – thank you!

Default Folder X 6.0.2 delivers a bunch of bug fixes for various issues, as well. It addresses everything from problems switching between folders in file dialogs to a bizarre bug that could cause the keyboard to stop responding until you quit Default Folder X. A full list of fixes is available on the Default Folder X What’s New page, along with download links.

If you’ve already bought the version 6 upgrade, this update is free. If you’re still running version 5, you may have to purchase the upgrade – hop over to the Default Folder X Upgrade page for details.
