Wonderful Script Idea. I don't use nearly as much of what is set up but it is useful for the 3 or 4 folders I switch between a lot daily at work.

Hi Rexx,

your script is such a time saver!

I am not sure whether you tried Sandboxie.com before (a very useful, small app)? Probably not? It allows you to start any program and to encapsulate the changes in a sandbox (so that the original system is protected from any modifications).

But here is my question. For example when I open a (sandboxed) explorer window, your script doesn't seem to work (that is I can not change to a different folder). But if I open a sandboxed command line window, your script works (that is changes directories correctly).

Any idea why that is?

Thank you very much for your help in advance!

Sincerely,
Peter

Rexx, thanks a for taking the time to try this. Hopefully you find Sandboxie useful Smile

Yes, indeed. It adds the prefix: Sandbox:DefaultBox:

Fortunately your app is flexible enough to add new Window classes. I actually tried this and it worked (added Sandbox:DefaultBox:CabinetWClass to ini file).

But since that worked, probably your "contains" code should also work?

Regards.
Peter

Rexx, thanks.

I tried the new version 121 (both the exe and ahk version), but when I click on "Add Favorite" in the menu it crashes and the tray icon disappears. All previous version worked fine.

Any ideas what could be wrong?

I tried Vista sp1 and Windows 7 (7077). I right clicked on the System tray.

Is there somekind of debug log?

The previous version was 1.16. (I personally like this version better, because less bloated (no lib.ahk etc)).

Actually I tested again. It works fine on Vista.

But on Windows 7 (7077) it crashes, for example when I click on options or add favorite in the right click menu.

I guess Windows 7 is not supported yet ...

Yes, good idea. Windows 7 RC is leaked already (build 7100).

Rexx,

you could use regular expressions instead of Contains.

For example:

Thanks for this script.

I have an error when trying to add a new item.

'Could not open...........whatever file
there's something wrong with your config file.'

It is a noob question, but what have I missed here?

Thanks
Andy
