Shortcut Controls

Switch them into shape

There are four ways that Explorer uses to display folders and file.

1. It will open a single pane window (no Explorer bar).
   
   
2. It will allow the user to navigate out of the folder (i.e. to the folder’s parent and beyond).
   
   
3. The default is for none of the items in a folder to yet be selected.
   
   
4. If there is already an open Explorer window displaying that folder, then the operating system will switch to that existing view, as opposed to opening a new one.

You can display the alternatives by usinf=g switches.

• /n forces it to open a new window, even if it duplicates a window that is already open.
  
  
• /e uses Windows Explorer view (multi-paned).
  
  
• /root,X restricts Explorer to showing only the contents of file folder X (and its sub-folders).
  
  
• /select,Y automatically selects Y (either a file or folder).
