Windows 7 explorer for Windows 8

thanks first, but for me the downloads, connect to, run and games folder (it does exist windows 8) don't appear.
any solution?

Note: I don't use english interface, maybe it has something to do with that but however i've copied my language files
thanks

 

Do you mean these? View attachment 17455
Did you check the right boxes...?

 

^
forgot about that, thank you

 

you are welcome. ..

 

if you are missing volume .... just google volume2

if you are missing volume .... just google volume2

 

I would tend to agree with this statement. The whole attraction to what you have done thus far is bring back the functionality in a native state, versus using third party utilities.

 

What happened to trying this with the explorer.exe from very early windows 8 leaks?

 

But how are you going to get the source code?

 

Burn (your eyes) after reading! due to black project classification ...

 

Ah, I see what you mean. Yeah, sounds like a lot of work

 

Oops...guess I didn't read properly before posting that...sorry my bad

Oh...now I understand keep up the good work

 

thanks for that, works very good

 

i dont think ms can now remove anycode... :/ windows RTM version its out ... sooo they have to wait for SP1 :/ to remove or add feature...

i think :?

btw thanks for all hard work ...

 

They can change it in a normal Windows Update.

 

LOL @ the guy that just asked to get banned. He was banned in less than a minute. Now that's service!!!

Any luck on getting the whole recently used documents to work a little better? Is a reset of explorer still needed?

Also, about that, resetting explorer.exe. If I go in and kill explorer.exe then run a new explorer.exe I get metro back so the system is still pointing to the original Win8 explorer (system path I assume). We have to make sure we remember where we put the Win7 explorer and make sure to run that if we need to manually reset it (due to crash or whatever).

 

Easy to explain.
Did put mine to

Code:

c:\explorer7\

so after applying the patch the system is running this explorer.exe directly from that location i did choose. After killing this explorer.exe you will have to restart

Code:

c:\explorer7\explorer.exe 

instead of

Code:

c:\windows\explorer.exe

. This will happen if you only input "explorer" in new task prompt.

Well yeah. After 17 years just typing in explorer has become one hell of a habit!

But for my users, some of them are technical enough to know how to reset explorer. This little bump will be a learning curve for them.

Thus:
