In LOVE with this.

There is so many programs that duplicate Total Commander's features ::))

you could also try the the StExBar. makes the same as open++, but is a bit more powerful

If anyone is interested :

Registering/Unregistering the shell extension can be done by script (when you plug/unplug your portable harddrive for example)

All you have to do is use the OpenXX.dll :

"rundll32 OpenXX.dll DllRegisterServer"
"rundll32 OpenXX.dll DllUnregisterServer"

I seem to have discovered a little bug in Open++ v.1.5.1, which -by the way- is an EXCELLENT application!!!
When calculating file's checksum I selected 34 files but Open++ only calculated the checksum for a maximum of 16 files.
I repeated the same procedure a few times (always selecting more than 10 pairs of files, so 20 files minimum) but it looks like there is no way to make Open++ calculate more than (8 pairs) 16 files at a time.
Does anybody have a solution?
Tnx

@SD: If the selected files are from a deeper folder, the maximum is still 16 or less?

I've been testing this out and I have to say, this is brilliant! Works great on restricted PC's as well as on my own home PC. A much better idea than the 'Cafe' style of double-click interception IMO.

With ref. to previous post (checksum maximum 16 files).

Explanation and workaround (tested & working!) offered by dev.

This issue should be a command line length limitation issue. The maximum length of command line on Windows is 2048, the Open++ needs to reserve 263 characters for the program path in the command line which leads to only have 1785 characters for arguments that can be used to store all file paths. So if the average path length of each selected file exceeds 110 characters, Open++ will only be able to handle 16 files.

Here is the workaround to let Open++ handle more files if you change the settings of "View File Checksum" command exactly as indicated below. The downside of this workaround is that the Open++ will not be able to calculate the checksum of the files which are not under the same folder.

Parameters: ViewFileChecksum %FileNames%

Working directory: %FileDir%

Wow, can't believe I missed the ability to run any of the items from the Open++ menu in elevated (admin rights) mode by just holding down the Shift key! And I've been using this for quite some time now (and actually rely on it).

^erm, seems I spoke to soon. The ability to run programs with elevated rights seems to be broken for items with relative paths.
