IDEA: reopen recently opened explorer windows, history, MRU
tmpusr:
Recent doesn't record opened and closed windows. Dunno what it records. Save dialog folders? Anyway, you'd need some 'show folders only', filtered toolbar app to make even Recent work a bit, because the Explorer toolbars display everything.
This Window History/Recent Windows app could simply record the window title. If full path is used in Explorer's title, it'd be easy to get the path.
Directory Opus has folder history.

You're right. I played with this and I had to open a file in the opened folder to have the folder's shortcut appear in Recent.
A utility to show recent windows would be pretty useful...
gebeleisis:
I want this app. Anyone knows AutoHotkey? I belive it could be done that way. I will try something, but I am just a noob...
Anywho, I think it's a great idea!
Peace out!

Did anyone ever make progress creating (or finding) something relevant?
I thought about trying to make something with AHK but I haven't come up with what seems to me like a good way to do it -- not fond of polling windows explorer windows to gather path information and even if polling was satisfactory, I haven't thought of a way to decide what paths to count as associated w/ "closed" windows (may be tracking all paths would be satisfactory?).
Perhaps someone has some good ideas regarding this matter :)
