Open folders with TC in Win 11

How to set Open folders with TC in Win 11, October 2023 ? I did this the last time in Win 7, but now I can't use the same procedure.

This reg file does it for me.
Adapt the paths, note that every \ in a path must be doubled \\

Code: Select all

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
 
 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell]
 @="open"
 
 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\open]
 
 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\open\command]
 @="c:\\tools\\wincmd\\TOTALCMD64.EXE /O /A /T /S \"%1\""
 
 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell]
 @="open"
 
 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\open]
 
 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\open\command]
 @="c:\\tools\\wincmd\\TOTALCMD64.EXE /O /A /T /S \"%1\""

Thank you! This looks like it should work. I will consult with my younger helper, because I know that hacking the registry doesn't always ends well.

I "LOVE" WIN11, I had to learn sooo many new things. Like window adjustment that was graphical in WINXP
I had to edit registry if I want to have wider side scroll bar. Why? With two monitors it's very easy to overshoot and do something unwanted on the second monitor. See, simple for your average WIN user. )))

I am setting up my new 10 year machine and want to make it exactly to match my workflow. Been using TC for over 25 years and just can't get used to the junk WE. I prefer to make may own way of organizing data. I have a super visual memory, so I can just surf the data really fast.

I am also looking for a "middle click on icon on taskbar closes file". Any ideas?
