IDEA: Shell extension to open the folder of a running application

<< < (2/4) > >>

dieguti:
Are you talking about opening the folder that contains the application's .exe file (eg Word.exe, Excel.exe), or the folder that contains the opened current data file (eg Document.doc, Workbook.xls)?

The folder of the exe application

dieguti:
Open Task Manager , Go to Processes Tab,  right click process -> "Open File Location"

or am I missing something?

Depends on the OS one use, isn't it?

An tool like SystemExplorer (DC Link) can provide this feature for XP too.

I have tested it and it does it.
But I'm looking for something less bloated. I'm currently using Process Explorer and I wouldn't like to have two process managers opened.

Download HomeFolder from my page:

edit: btw it's only been tested on SDI type applications.  Programs that run in a main window.  I don't much use MDI type apps.  May work but I don't guarantee it.

A small application and it works great with everything, Internet Explorer, Firefox, Word, etc...
Thank you very much.

MilesAhead:
Glad it fits the bill. :)
