| [XP Pro] How can I open an explorer window using a batch file?
Hello all,
I'm searching for a different way of opening an explorer window using a batch file. Currently I am adding the line, "Start \\computer_name\shared_directory". This will work most of the time but in some rare cases it will freak out and start opening multiple CMD.EXE windows until I hit ctrl C. Is there an easier way to opening a UNC path using a batch file? Thanks.

You might get more/better responses if you could let us know what you're trying to accomplish, other than what is stated in the title.
I'm on Vista, so I don't know it it works for you, but the following works for me.

Hey ryan2444:
Google has a site:
»www.microsoft.com/resources/docu···mfr=true
where they talk about doing commands within XP. It is quite a write up. I don't know whether it would help you any. I am not much of a programmer.
Good Luck. aeroam.  |

Thanks. The explorer command seems to be what I needed. |
