Extension CLSID are:
http://msdn.microsoft.com/library/d...shell_adv/namespaceextension/nse_junction.asp
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE
Software
Microsoft
Windows
CurrentVersion
Explorer
NetworkNeighborhood
Namespace
{Extension CLSID}
Virtual Folder Name is one of the registry key names in the following
table.
Location Virtual Folder Name
My Computer MyComputer
Desktop Desktop
Control Panel ControlPanel
My Network Places NetworkNeighborhood
Entire Network NetworkNeighborhood\EntireNetwork
Remote Computer RemoteComputer
Remote extensions must be initialized with IRemoteComputer.
Just so I don't get lost:
Explorer.exe
/e,/root,::{208D2C60-3AEA-1069-A2D7-08002B30309D}\EntireNetwork
Were we just trying to display the root Entire Network?
I'm lost again. Anyway the above statement works Explorer.exe
/e,]root,::{Folder CLSID}
Note the lack of white space after the slash-e until the end.
I can not go any further because I have policies set restricting it. I
have to find out where.
I need sleep
| That's the problem for the OP, there's no CLSID for Entire Network,
Microsoft Windows Network, or
| Workgroup -- and CLSIDs are the only things I can get to work using
the '...,objectname' syntax.
|
| I think the problem is similar to trying to use a command line to
open 'Last Week' in the History
| folder. Explorer has no problem with:
|
| explorer.exe C:\Documents and Settings\Keith\Local Settings\History
|
| but balks at:
|
| explorer.exe C:\Documents and Settings\Keith\Local
Settings\History\Last Week
|
| VBScript can get into these places, but until we hear from the OP,
I'm not gonna worry about it
