I noticed that there's a standalone version of QuickSwitch

I tried it out just now.  The menu method it uses seems much less awkward than using my PastePath utility.  When it shows a menu of open folders just click on the desired one.  :Thmbsup:

I noticed that there's a standalone version of QuickSwitch (in AutoHotkey) under active development at https://github.com/gepruts/QuickSwitch It support not only File Explorer but also some third party editors. I haven't tried it but thought it might interest some here.
Windows 10 and Directory Opus here -- looking to change 'save as' dialogue to folder currently shown in Dopus.

it doesnt switch automatically (as promisied, after AltTab, to the desired folder in file manager), but does show a menu with the relevant folder path so I just click that and I'm good :up:

[attachthumb=#]
(enabling the 'Auto switch' only causes the menu to disappear, but I'm happy with the path being shown)

Btw, there's a search everything plugin that does this quickswitch feature.  https://www.voidtools.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=11194
Now if only FARR would use everything as its backend search, the slowness of FARR vs other indexed tools is my one downside to FARR
