How do I set up a folder desktop shortcut to open in XE instead of Windows 8 File Explorer.

I would like to have XE open my Screenshots folder from its desktop shortcut of the folder.

~ Thank U ~

Workaround: create a FC shortcut in your SendTo folder.

Create the desktop shortcut with following target:

C:\FreeCommanderPATH\FreeCommander.exe /T /L=D:\FOLDERPATH\

/T = new tab
/L = left window

Finally got it to work with the following target:

"C:\Program Files (x86)\FreeCommander XE\FreeCommander.exe" Files (x86)\FreeCommander XE\FreeCommander.exe /T /L=C:\Users\J\Pictures\Screenshots

Is that the correct syntax ? Is there a way to improve it ? Please edit above target to correct formate.

"C:\Program Files (x86)\FreeCommander XE\FreeCommander.exe" C:\Users\J\Pictures\Screenshots seems to work fine.

Are following parameters needed ?

/T = new tab
/L = left window

Thank U all.

The second command looks good with a leading "

"C:\Program Files (x86)\FreeCommander XE\FreeCommander.exe" C:\Users\J\Pictures\Screenshots

You need the " for "Path with Spaces"

The parameters are not needed but helpful.

Your first command has "FreeCommander.exe" two times and an irregular path, so I don't know why it works!
