[Question] Path for File V2 (msixbunble) #6435

Closed christubuntu closed 3 years ago

christubuntu commented 3 years ago

I installed the msixbundle and would like to set my search application, Fluent Search (https://www.fluentsearch.net/) to open directories into File v2 (instead of the native File Explorer. Setting it as default (using registry method) only works when I directly open a directory, not when "Opening file path", which is what I'm trying to achieve. What's the path I need to input? default

Path: try files.exe or %LocalAppData%\Microsoft\WindowsApps\files.exe Arguments: try %1 or -Directory %1 (not sure about the %1, how is it set for other programs? also it could be "%1" for folder paths with spaces)
