Welcome to the Explore now! page! Explore now! was written for Windows 95 and Windows NT or above. It was of great importance for me in the mid of the nineties, when I didn't have keyboards with a Windows key as it simulates the most important Windows key combination, Windows+E, which fires up explorer.

What is it?Explore now! is a small utility that enables you to start the explorer of Windows 95 or Windows NT 4 with just a single click of your mouse on an icon in the system tray. The system tray is the neat, small window within the taskbar of the shell of Windows 95 or Windows NT 4.0 that contains such useful things as a clock or an icon for the sound adapter card if there is one installed. The system tray on my computer with Explore now! running looks like this: If you click on Explore now!'s icon, explorer will be activated. If you double-click on its icon, two explorers will be activated and displayed side-by-side. If you like to customize or exit Explore now! just do a right click on the icon to get a context menu. There you can change the starting options of Explore now! and Explorer as well as get some more information about Explore now! or exit the application. Explore now! currently supports the german language only but will be multilingual in the near future! Feature List:
Why I wrote this cool program...Simply because I did not have a Windows 95 keyboard which makes it easy to start Explorer (the Windows-Key-E-combination). So I needed a quick way to invoke Explorer. I also wanted to have a way to bring an already running instance of Explorer to the top, without creating a new Explorer instance, which is something the Windows-Key-Combination can't.What was technically challenging in writing this program?Nothing, no really nothing. |
