-explore with expand!

[meteorquake]

-explore is the main command-line launch I tend to use now for most things rather than a flat path search.

I'm finding it would often be handy to have an option with it that expands the folder tree target folder so the first child folders are ready-showing to click on. It may be some will want it deeper so the option could be "expand-depth", with 1 meaning just expand to show the immediate children.

I'm not sure if there's a way available yet, but the equivalent of the XP-version of Explorer /root would be amazing, rooting the folder tree on the given path, as it allows the tree to be completely decluttered to just what you're working on.

Cheers, David

What is, -explore?

-explore

What is, -explore?

From Command-line Options :

-explore <path>

Set the folder sidebar selection to the specified path.
The path can point to a file or folder.
The selection will be set to the parent folder if the path specifies a file.

The next alpha update will have a -explore-expand command line option.

I'll make another post here once this is ready for testing.

Thank you for the suggestion.

Everything 1.5.0.1334a adds an -explore-expand command line option.

Please combine with -explore

For example:

Everything64.exe -explore "C:\Windows" -explore-expand



I will consider a /root option to limit the results to a specific folder.
Thank you for the suggestions.
