You can configure a list of query favorites for operators to select from a shortcut menu.
Make sure that you put the query favorites file in a folder that is accessible to Windows Vista or newer standard users. If WindowViewer always runs with the same user account, you can use:
C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\
If different users will run WindowViewer, you can use:
C:\Users\Public\Documents\
