Title: Open Folder in Windows Explorer
Post by: brianatnet on October 23, 2022, 11:40:42

Hi

I sometimes use Windows Explorer for previewing pdf and image files. In this topic http://forum.multicommander.com/forum/index.php?topic=1721.0 it is said that this will not be implemented in Multi Commander.

As a workaround, I would like to have a simple way to open the selected folder in Windows Explorer.
This is possible from the right-click context menu of the folder by clicking "Open".

Is it possible to make a shortcut to this in Multi Commander? Or is it maybe already there somehow?

tia,
Brian

That was 2016 , Windows Preview Handler is now partial added.. if you active Hover preview and you have a preview handler installed for PDF (by default in windows 10 there is one)
It will show the pdf in a hover window.

If you want to open current location in Windows Explorer. then just type "." (dot) and press return in the command line field.
