Windows 10 "Quick Access" from TC?

Post by *Jerez »

I am aware that one can access "Recent Places" by defining the item in TC's "Directory menu" with the command

"cd %APPDATA%\Microsoft\Windows\Recent"


Is there a way to access Win10 "Quick Access" with some cd command?

Thanks,

Jerez

Try this (with a button):

Code: Select all

TOTALCMD#BAR#DATA
explorer.exe shell:::{679F85CB-0220-4080-B29B-5540CC05AAB6}

C:\WINDOWS\System32\shell32.dll,317
Win10 "Quick Access"


-1
You can use the code as follows:
1. Mark the code (simply press and hold the left-hand mouse button and drag over the code, then release the left mouse button)
2. Press the CTRL-key and hold it down, then press the letter "C" (CTRL + C = Copy to clipboard)
3. Make a right click on your buttonbar on an empty space [e.g. after the last button or between the buttons]
4. Click on menu item "Paste"
5. Push the new button => "Quick Access" should be opened in Windows 10

EDIT - Remark:
- Make a right click on "Quick access" in Windows Explorer, then click on "Copy address".
- Take the code in curly braces and place the following in front: "explorer.exe shell :::" (without "").
Result: explorer.exe shell:::{679F85CB-0220-4080-B29B-5540CC05AAB6}

or try this:

open Explorer and drag the Quick Access (Star) on to the desktop.
This will create a ShortCut link under ..\username\desktop.

Add this ShortCut to a button and you are good to go - short of making the icon and tooltip.
Please note that this will open QA in Explorer (same effect as above).

If you double-click the ShortCut directly in TC, it will open QA in the TC pane - I can't make that part work w. button or command line ...
