Mac RightClick: native Finder right-click actions for copying paths and converting PDF or AVI files locally.

Features · Install · Privacy

macOS Swift Finder Sync Local only

Mac RightClick is a tiny native macOS utility that adds focused actions to Finder's right-click menu. It keeps everyday file operations where they belong: directly beside the file, with no Shortcuts, no Automator workflow, and no cloud service in the middle.

Why Copy Path?

Finder already lets you hold Option in its contextual menu to reveal Copy as Pathname. That works, but I do not want to press Option either. This operation is so simple it deserves a one-handed flow from start to finish: select the file, right-click it, choose Copy Path.

Select a file, right click it in Finder, run a native conversion, and receive the output beside the source file.

Small menu. Practical file work.

Features

Action Appears when Output
Copy Path Any Finder item is selected Copies absolute file paths to the clipboard, one per line
Convert PDF to JPG Every selected item is a PDF Single-page PDFs create Name.jpg; multi-page PDFs create a Name JPG folder
Convert AVI to MP4 Every selected item is an .avi file Creates Name.mp4 beside the source AVI

Built on Apple frameworks

  • Finder Sync adds the root contextual menu items in Finder.
  • PDFKit renders PDF pages to JPG at 200 DPI with high-quality JPEG output.
  • AVFoundation exports AVI video to MP4 locally.
  • AppKit pasteboard powers Copy Path without extra dependencies.

Install

Download the latest release DMG, open it, and drag MacRightClick.app into Applications.

Then enable the Finder extension:

  1. Open System Settings.
  2. Go to General > Login Items & Extensions.
  3. Open Extensions / Finder Extensions.
  4. Enable Mac RightClick.
  5. Relaunch Finder, or run:
killall Finder

Use

Right-click selected files in Finder:

Copy Path
Convert PDF to JPG
Convert AVI to MP4

Conversion output is written next to the source file. Existing files are not overwritten; Mac RightClick adds a numeric suffix when needed.

Privacy

Mac RightClick is intentionally boring about data:

  • It processes files locally on your Mac.
  • It does not upload files.
  • It does not request notification permission.
  • It only acts on files the user selected in Finder.
  • macOS may ask for file access the first time output is written into protected folders such as Downloads, Desktop, Documents, or Movies.

Notes

Finder Sync extensions are managed by macOS. If a newly installed build does not appear immediately, relaunch Finder and confirm the extension is enabled in System Settings.
