As always we are adding features to make it easier for our customers to use the functionality to offer the most compelling Amazon S3 , CloudFront and IAM client on Windows platform.
With this release we are adding a feature that makes it easier to work with the folders and buckets you use on a regular basis. The feature is called Favorites and it remind the Favorites feature in the web browsers. You can select a certain bucket (with the path) and a certain folder to create a Favorites entry and then quickly navigate to it when needed. This is especially useful when you have many accounts with many buckets.
To create a Favorite entry click a Star button on the toolbar as shown on the screen below. you can optionally store a current folder in another pane by clicking Save target also checkbox.
To navigate to the Favorite folder or bucket just click the following button on the toolbar and select an entry you need from the list.
If you want to remove an entry just click the start button next to it and click Remove button in the pop-up dialog.
Note: In the freeware version of CloudBerry Explorer you can store up to 3 Favorites entry. In the PRO version it is unlimited.

Thanks so much for adding a "favorites" ability. Made my life a whole lot easier. One problem is that I have deleted a folder where the "favorite" was pointing to and now I have no way to unstar the "favorite" since the folder is gone. Wish there was a menu item for accessing the "favorites" for editing or removing. Thanks!
Hi Kenny,
in the latest release 3.2.4.24/25 if you open the favorite entry that refers to a folder that doesn't exist you will get a message box suggesting to remove the entry. I would recommend to upgrade to the latest version.
you can also edit the favorites.xml file manually. you can find it at
C:\Users\user_name\AppData\Local\CloudBerry Explorer for Amazon S3\favoirtes.xml
