Easy New File 6.0 for Mac – Finder Context Menu Extension
Mac users coming from Windows often miss the simple ability to right-click in a folder and immediately create a new text file or document. Easy New File bridges this gap perfectly. It is a lightweight Finder extension that integrates natively into your right-click context menu, completely eliminating the tedious process of opening an application first just to save a blank document to your desired location.
Beyond just creating standard files like Word documents, Python scripts, or plain text files, it serves as a massive time-saver for developers and power users. You can instantly copy the direct file path of any selected item or open a new Terminal window routed exactly to your current folder. Simply enable it in your Mac’s System Settings, relaunch Finder, and you will have a significantly more powerful right-click menu.
