Q-Dir Plugin is already available for a long while.

Code: [Select]
Call,DownloadX,"%BaseDir%\Projects\Yomi\AppY\File Tasks\Q-Dir_Nenad.script"
See: Downloading Plugins with a CodeBox

Reminding: In the future to update the Q-Dir application inside plugin, only click "Update Plugin" button

Well, I recently start to use Q-Dir a lot on my PC and after many settings I use Q-Dir as my default File Manager, I do not see Explorer ui for a long while now.  :lol:

Q-Dir works faster to me and since it uses Explorer resources rest goes fine ...

But the settings I made for Q-Dir is very much ... ,
 I recently gather many of the settings on Q-Dir Plugin (yesterday) and decide to open a topic so we can gather other settings if required.


To me, there are a lot of settings to get Q-Dir comfortable to replace Explorer.
 I attach Q-Dir_x64_Lancelot.7z so anyone can extract and start using an Q-Dir as Explorer replacement that looks like Explorer.  :wink:

+ Info

There are also Settings not related to directly to Q-dir.ini but related to OS you use.

*
Here is registry I add Q-Dir and Explorer to Folder Context menu and make Q-Dir my default Folder manager.
Code: [Select]
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell]
@="Q-Dir"

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Explore\command]
@="explorer.exe /n,/e,\"%1\""

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\Q-Dir\command]
@="D:\\Portabless\\Q-Dir\\Q-Dir_Portable_x64\\Q-Dir\\Q-Dir_x64.exe \"%1\""

you have to change path of Q-Dir at above registry following your personal path.

To get back Explorer default Filemanager for folders use
Code: [Select]
Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell]
@="none"

ps: There is also option on Q-Dir menu for same but it did not go well to me, I use the one above.

To get away from explorer zipfolder association, add following to Q-Dir.ini (change path of 7-Zip with your personal os)
Code: [Select]
[Association]
*.cab;*.zip=C:\Program Files\7-Zip\7zFM.exe

ps: I removed "explorer zipfolder association" from my Windows so I do not need that anymore.

1)
You need SetACL.exe See: https://helgeklein.com/setacl/
2)
and run Disable_ZipFolders_Win10_RunAsSystem.cmd as System
See nircmd.exe elevatecmd runassystem --> https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/nircmd.html
See Nsudo https://github.com/M2Team/NSudo

Disable_ZipFolders_Win10_RunAsSystem.cmd
Code: [Select]
cd /d "%~dp0"
SetACL.exe -on "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}" -ot reg -actn setowner -ownr "n:Administrators" -rec Yes
SetACL.exe -on "HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}" -ot reg -actn ace -ace "n:Administrators;p:full" -rec Yes

REG COPY HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31} HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31}_BACKUP /s /f
REG DELETE HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{E88DCCE0-B7B3-11d1-A9F0-00AA0060FA31} /f
