  1. Forcing wifi config to run with a custom shell


    So I have forced shell to run as a custom program, however when attempting to use the wifi options in said program noramlly it would use the wifi config from windows.

    Is there a way I can add an argument in the registry or a PS script I can replace it with instead to lauch just the wifi config part and then the custom program?



    Sorry if this seems easy, not very familiar with Power Shell at all....

    Devices not automatically refreshed in File Explorer when running from a custom shell

    Hi,

    I am running a custom shell on Windows 10 IoT Enterprise (1809). When I start the explorer.exe process (File Explorer) from the shell or open a File Dialog box, and subsequently connect or disconnect a USB drive, the navigation pane and the "This PC" view
    do not refresh automatically. To see the change to the list of connected devices, I have to close and reopen File Explorer.

    If the "Desktop" explorer.exe process is started from Task Manager, the problem goes away - i.e. devices are immediately added or removed from the navigation pane/This PC when connected/disconnected.

    So my question is: how can automatic device discovery in File Explorer be enabled when using a custom shell?

    I have looked at registry keys and services, but haven't managed to find a solution.

    P.S. moving the File Explorer window seems to force an update and refreshes the list of connected devices.

  3. Shell experience not running in Windows 10

    Hi,

    I appreciate if you could answer few questions to narrow down to the issue.


    • What is the exact issue that you are facing?

    • Does that mean the Start menu Cortana and the Task bar is not responding?

    • Which is the current build installed on the computer?

    • Did you install any third party security application?

    • Where exactly did you find that the shell experience not running?
    As an initial troubleshooting step, I suggest you to download and install any pending updates that needs to be installed on the computer through Windows update and check if it helps to resolve the issue.

    Hope the information helps. Please get back to us with the required information. We will be happy to help.

    Thank you.

    Forcing wifi config to run with a custom shell

    Run Custom Shell als Administrator

    The option to run in a minimized window only exists for shortcuts to batch files. But Shortcuts don't work as shell path for some reason.
