Thanks for the tip.

Somehow I had forgotten that several of my keyboards have a R-click key, which lies at the lower right of the keyboard, next to the Ins key.

Re shift-F10: I'm running windows 8.1. I've just now learned that v8.1 uses ctrl-shift-F10 to raise the R-click context menu.

So... in win 8.1, to raise the relevant explorer folder in MM, here's the key sequence: ctrl-shift-F10, then press the F key followed by the E key.

Not so easy, but nevertheless nice to know about.

Thx nohitter151.

Many keyboards have a button that does the same as right-click built in. Also a shortcut to do so in windows is shift+f10. see http://lifehacker.com/243499/quick-wind ... ntext-menu

BTW, pressing Shift+F10 produces no result for me.

You need to select/highlight something first. It's a windows shortcut.

Re a toolbar button for "Open Explorer Folder," I do have that icon positioned in the MM toolbar.

But… I have a strong preference for doing the task via keyboard. For me keyboard is very much faster than laboriously positioning the cursor over a toolbar button.

So I'm looking for a keyboard method to accomplish the task of opening the windows folder that contains the selected item. I do not see anything resembling 'open explorer folder' in the list of actions shown in tools > options > hotkeys.

Shift + F10

There are toolbar buttons for this (find more of the same) that make things a lot easier.
Just right click on a border/frame somewhere > toolbars > configure > configure and apply to wherever you want (horizontal/vertical)
[I think they default to one of the upper borders after applied, but can be moved]

Nice!

And can your raise the R-click context menu with the keyboard, i.e. via a keyboard shortcut?

Or must you laboriously position the cursor over the item and R-click?

Right-click > Find more from same > Folder (explorer)

Question: How to show a file in windows explorer, i.e. launch a windows explorer folder that contains the selected song/podcast, etc?

Is there a keyboard shortcut or a context-menu item that would accomplish that task?

Or must you click an icon for "Open Explorer folder" in the MM taskbar? There must be another way, right?

Thx in advance,
