Keyboard shortcut for the Windows Explorer address bar
Found it, it's possible with the following two shortcuts:
- Alt+D selects the current path in English versions (see comments for other languages)
- on Windows 8, Ctrl+L can also be used to select the current path (all languages)
- F4 will put the cursor at the end of the current path and expand the dropdown list of the address bar (all languages)
BTW: here's a complete list of keyboard shortcuts in windows 7: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Keyboard-shortcuts
If you're using non-English version, you can use AutoHotkey with this script:
#IfWinActive ahk_class CabinetWClass
!d::ControlClick,ToolbarWindow322
return
Another AutoHotKey solution based on the one from @epifun
@epifun 's solution does not work if the address in the addressbar is very long.
#IfWinActive ahk_class CabinetWClass
!d::
ControlFocus, ToolbarWindow322
send {space}
return
