Copy shell32.dll and shlwapi.dll Rename shell32.dll (xp) to shellxp.dll Rename shlwapi.dll to xpswapi.dll Replace everything in shellxp.dll and replace every text that is "shell32.dll" with "shellxp.dll", replace every text that is "shlwapi.dll" with "xpswapi.dll" too. Do the same with xpswapi.dll (xp) Put the files in C:\openwith Run the following command: rundll32.exe C:\openwith\shellxp.dll,OpenAs_RunDLL C:\Windows\System32\explorerframe.dll
Keep in mind: It crashes explorer when you open it with a program. If someone has a fix for it tell me |

I'm pretty sure it crashes since the two shell32.dlls clashes together on some function or call. I tried doing the XP shell32.dll trick with the folder bar and it seems that the older shell32.dll is very unstable on newer windows. Still very cool trick  |

On my system, it does not crash the explorer, but nothing happens when open it with a program.

It seems to partially work for me. Some programs open just fine, some others do not. Some file types cause a crash, some do not. Using 19044.4529 OS build.
