Publication number: 20130179414Abstract: The claimed subject matter provides for systems and/or methods for accessing and/or updating files by a first application in which the first application does not have direct accessibility to said file. In some embodiments, file host applications that are not directly accessible to said first application may be connected to through a file picker extensibility point that enable the first application to acquire files through an operating system user experience. In these various embodiments, the system may provide for one or more of the following functionalities: (1) refreshing content that is controlled by a file host application; (2) updating content that is controlled by a file host application; (3) exporting files from an application to a file host application; (4) a user interface for export operations and file host application intervention and (5) a file host extensibility point provided by the operating system.Type: ApplicationFiled: January 6, 2012Publication date: July 11, 2013Applicant: Microsoft CorporationInventors: Scott David Hoogerwerf, David Charles Fields, Michael John Novak, Richard Jacob White, Dennis Lawrence Davis, Gabriel Shawn DeBacker, Jeffrey Jay Johnson, Manav Mishra, Steven James Ball
