Open and Explore?

Sorry that my first post is so dumb but what is the difference between explore and open. They both seem to do the same thing.

Hi George,

Thanks for your post.

On Windows XP, "open" will open a folder without the tree view, whereas "explore" will open a folder with the tree view.
On Windows Vista and later, this tree view is always shown, so open and explore do the same thing.

In Everything 1.3 and later the Explore menu item is removed from this context menu when running on Vista and later.

To remove the Explore menu items in Everything 1.2:

• Exit Everything.
• Open your Everything.ini file in your Everything installation folder.
• Change the following lines:

  Code: Select all

  explore_folder_command=$exec("%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe" /n,/e,"%1")
  explore_folder_path_command=$exec("%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe" /n,/e,/select,"%1")
  

  to:

  Code: Select all

  explore_folder_command=
  explore_folder_path_command=

Wow, that was quick.

Thanks for the quick response and a great product.
