Really? I was actually very surprised that you didn't include it in the original release. The problem is taht the default way windows looks for files... say you want to open for example a PDF fie by opening Adobe Reader, then FILE, then OPEN, windows first scans your ENTIRE system, ALL FILES and THEN displays what PDFs it's found. This entails a LOT of waiting. Adding this to your ROM would actually help it's legendary "fastness"

No big if you don't include it because it can be added afterward.. but I personally don't find it acceptable to wait for windows to scan my ENTIRE filesystem before I can pick a file to open. If you can't tell I'm really trying to encourage you to test it out on your own system and see what I mean. I know if you do.. you would add it. I think it entails placing a dll in the windows dir, then a shortcut in the startup folder. That's it.
