Re^4: Launch Windows Explorer from Windows DOS prompt

I don't like the Explorer default of not showing the folder structure. So I want the folders on when Explorer launches. Hence the /e flag when launching Explorer.

To change the default, set `HKCR\Folder\shell\(Default)` to `explore`. Underfining said value or setting it to `open` will restore the default behaviour.	[reply] [d/l] [select]

I did not knew that, thank you. But as soon as you use a directory as parameter, you have to use the /e to make it work (on W2K at least) And it came to pass that in time the Great God Om spake unto Brutha, the Chosen One: "Psst!" (Terry Pratchett, Small Gods)	[reply]
