Need help creating Windows Batch file - Open multiple folders maximized.

Background:

I regularly use a number of folders.
I don't like having to manually open them one-by-one.
So I wanted to create a batch file which could open them all, maximized.

I have very little experience with command line stuff.
So I searched the web for help.

Problem:

I managed to open multiple folders using this kind of code:

Code:

explorer C:\windows
explorer C:\Program Files
explorer C:\

Problem is, they open in "windowed" mode (basically shrunken windows).
I'd like them to open "maximized".

Question:

What code allows me to open multiple folders maximized?

 

When working with windows and batch files, you should see this most excellent program to help you.

Learn to use it, a very nice tool to help all your batch endeavors.

You can do this:

 

May I suggest using Xplorer^2 as your file manager? It lets you use two panes, and bookmarks of your favorite folders. I always have 4 tabs open in each pane - 3 are for folders I use very commonly, and 1 is for transient use. I use the free Lite version - heavy enough in features for my needs.

 

Thanks for the tip Sully . Have you tried NirCmd?

 

Yes I have. It is a good app. The only thing I don't like about it is you have to include it to a computer that does not have it to use it, same as cmdow. Not a big deal, but it is always nice to place a script on a computer with no dependencies. But nirCmd is pretty good when you need what it provides.
