I use the basic windows explorer to browse a large collection of images. I have a very well organised group of folders and I don’t need/want any of the extra functionality of photo organisers such as picasa etc…

The only drawback is: I’d really like to be able to browse from one folder straight into the next, without having to click back and choosing the next folder.

So my question is, how could I do this in the smoothest way?!

I’m guessing I could use a combination of some script and then use auto hotkey to bind it to a key shortcut.

Any help/ideas/pointers very appreciated!

Thanks.

  1. Well for now I’m using autohotkey and a little script.

    It’s not perfect as explorer has to jump up a folder and then down again but it works for now.

    if WinActive('ahk_class CabinetWClass') or WinActive('ahk_class' . ExplorerWClass)  ^Up::  SendEvent {Alt Down}{Left}{Alt Up}  SendEvent {Up}  Sleep 300  SendEvent {Return}   ^Down::  SendEvent {Alt Down}{Left}{Alt Up}  SendEvent {Down}  Sleep 300  SendEvent {Return}
