  3. Prepare the following BAT (e.g. muCommander.bat) file (which is long since it both auto detects the [version] in mucommander-[version].jar and makes sure to take the newest one if you accidentally kept previous versions):
    @echo off
    setlocal enabledelayedexpansion
    set "JAR_FILE="
    set "LAST_FILE="
    for %%f in ("%~dp0mucommander-*.jar") do (
    if "!LAST_FILE!" lss "%%~nxf" (
    set "LAST_FILE=%%~nxf"
    )
    )
    if not defined LAST_FILE (
    echo mucommander-*.jar not found.
    exit /b
    )
    set "JAR_FILE=!LAST_FILE!"
    :startApp
    start "" "%~dp0\..\CommonFiles\Java\bin\javaw.exe" -jar "%~dp0!JAR_FILE!" -p "%~dp0.mucommander"

This program still supports SMB 1.0, which is no longer supported by Windows 10. Very useful if you have older devices and don't want to make your Windows 10 insecure by re-enabling this protocol.
