In Windows, you can just copy the file path from Explorer and paste it into the save file dialog.


Yep, I’m aware of that.

MacBook touchpad right under the keyboard makes drag n drop feel like a superior method.

For context, I have a fairly extensive AutoHotKey script and a 22 button Razer Naga configured to automate repetitive tasks on my Windows 10 work PC, and Windows 10 has proven itself to be super stable and robust at work and home, so I’m by no means a bias MacOS fan or whatever, and if I’m honest I really do prefer Windows 10... and my 2013 MBPr died the other day, and there’s not much chance of me buying another MacBook any time soon because they’re over priced and lack ports.

Where was I going with this?

Oh yeah, there’s some things MacOS does that are great UI design....


On macOS too, you can press cmd-shift-g and paste the path.
