    Default Explorer Replacer v.0.1

    I made a small tool for those who want to replace the stock-Explorer with their favourite dj-application.

    You can run an alternate filemanager or a DJ app instead of Explorer.
    If Traktor crashes it should reload itself (however I didn't test that).

    It's nich้ (like a lot of stuff I do), but for a few it will be handy.

    Traktor ?
    No, not really.

    Programs like the Total Commander or whatever you like.

    Here's the scenario I created the tool for:
    I worked at Innovation-forum which contains a few multitouch tables, touchscreens and a lot more.
    Now it destroys the illusion of a futuristic interface if you see plain Windows OS. Therefore I created a custom application-menu and replaced the Explorer with it.
    So everytime you start the devices all you see is my cool application chooser.

    How would you go about re-enabling explorer.exe?

    The application has two buttons. The seconds one does that.
    After disabling explorer you can still bring up the taskmanager (Ctrl+Shift+Esc) and start Explorer or whatever you want manually.

    So it's still running all of the other windows services in the background?
