Lite as Default Explorer

Post by Carson »

I'm not sure if this can be done, but it is really what I want. Is there a way to make Xplorer 2 Lite my default way of seeing my files?

I'm talking about pressing on a directory and having it display, never in Windows Explorer, but by default in my nice new Lite.

As it is, I can call up Lite and then, once I'm working in Lite, I can call anything to display in it. But what I'd like it to do would be the reverse. I'd like to have the file call the program, as it were. This is available in Windows Explorer, and I wish I could select a setting that would have Lite poilitely elbow Windows Explorer out of the way.

Or am I missing something? Is there indeed a default setting option?

Thank you.

@eyals

I tested your Reg-Files. Thanks for that. But i have to do a little change, because i had the Free Version and a german System.

I change the reg-files to

@="Xplorer2_lite"

and

@="\"C:\Programme\zabkat\xplorer2_lite\xplorer2.exe\" /T /1 \"%1\""

and i tried

@="\"C:\\Programme\\zabkat\\xplorer2_lite\\xplorer2.exe\" /T /1 \"%1\""


But it doesn't work...

Sorry for my englisch...it is a little bit rusty.

What does it make wrong?

Thanks in advance
