I've started using a new file manager, but I really missing the Windows key + E command to launch explorer.

Anyone know how I can change this to launch my new file manager?

Had a look in [HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SYSTEM\CurrentControlSet\Contro l\Keyboard Layout] but nothing obvious there.

The net only talks about changing it's entrie function, or disabling it, or changing one of them.

347134 2005-04-21 05:03:00 Oh well, guess I'll have to suffice with a standard keyboard shortcut. Man, 3 keys, might have to improve my dexterity.. saikou (7056)
347135 2005-04-21 21:24:00 right click on program icon (shortcut) select properties in there you will able to assign shortcut key. beama (111)
347136 2005-04-22 02:23:00 Yes, that's what i meant by "standard keyboard shortcut". What did you think I meant?

Too bad about no-one knowing how to change the Windows key.

I found one but it was expensive
