copy the following content to a .bat file and move the .bat file into the root folder of xyplorer; run it and it works
Code: Select all
reg copy HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\folder\shell\opennewwindow\command HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\folder\shell\opennewwindow\command.bak /f
reg delete HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\folder\shell\opennewwindow\command /v DelegateExecute /f
reg add HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\folder\shell\opennewwindow\command /ve /d "%~dp0XYplorer.exe" /f
I think this can be in integrated into xyplorer itself.

Execute this line from a command prompt and post a screenshot of the output...
REG QUERY HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\folder\shell\opennewwindow\command

So obviously you've never executed the lines posted by univert,
or executed them without admin permissions and got ERROR: Access is denied. error messages...
and before you execute them (with proper permissions), don't forget to do it from inside XYplorers root folder
otherwise the XYplorer.exe entry will have the wrong path...

I have full access and full control both as admin (default) as well as User.

Great! The problem is, that the OS doesn't care about you thinking that you have full admin permissions only because your user account belongs to the administrators group...
So can you finally right click that .bat file and use "Run as administrator" from the context menu, please?

Yes, this indeed works, the programs starts using the key combination. I need advice if this is a permanent solution or does the file have to be run again after windows startup. Thanks.

It's a registry entry^^ As long as you don't overwrite it, it's permanent...
