Can Get Web Browser To Open And Open File That Was Clicked On In Explorer?

Aug 7, 2011

I've noticed that when you click on a web page in Windows Explorer, or open a file in general, and the default application to open it is internet explorer, ie opens and opens the file. However, when I tried this on my Web Browser it opened, but ignored the file and went on its usual routine. How can I get my Web Browser to open and open the file that was clicked on in explorer?

How To Make A Web-browser Run / Open Files When Links Clicked On

Aug 8, 2011

Im making a "offline viewer" which uses saved webpages.I'm using a web browser and a tree-viewer. Currently when you click a link for a file/ installer (for example if you click on the "The Gimp" installer link) you have to right click, and then "save target as..." and then save it (so you would then two copys of the same file) AND then open it.Is there way i could have the file open when the link click? (Again, for example, the running of The Gimp installer apon clicked, or the opening of the video file when clicked)

Open File In Default Browser?

Jul 21, 2010

[URL]

My situation is a little different. In my VB.NET project, I have imported (or created) a website that is contained in a folder named SAHelp. The idea is to have a local website installed to the user's computer so when they click help, the file C:[installation path]SAHelpindex.htm will open in their default browser.

I can certainly make this work by publishing a website to the real internet such as: System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://www.SomeDumbWebsite.com") which would act as my online help. But I want to bury this in my application.

Part 2: I'd like to detect if the user has an active internet connection:

If (User has Active Internet Connection) then
System.Diagnostics.Process.Start("http://www.SomeDumbWebsite.com")
else

C# - Get Path Of All Open Explorer Windows?

Jan 5, 2012

I want to list all open Windows Explorer windows with their active path in a ListBox. The app should refresh the ListBox if the explorer window is navigated to a different path.

For e.g. two explorer windows are open. One is navigated to C:Windows and the other is navigated to D:Stuff. When the app it run, it adds C:Windows and D:Stuff to the ListBox. Then, the user navigates to a different folder in one of the open explorer windows like C:Windowssystem32. The app should then refresh the ListBox and list C:Windowssystem32 and D:Stuff instead.
