Can you make windows 8 and 8.1 have an option to have the classic/non-metro open with dialog in classic explorer? If you want to totally ignore metro, that doesn't really help, and it feels kind of out of place if you use a custom theme. This kind of thing should be possible, since you replaced the copy dialog. On windows 8/8.1 the 'open with' was replaced with a metro popup thing (use windows 8 or 8.1 ever and you'll understand), and it isn't a window. This is the last bit of metro left on the desktop when using classic start, and it would be nice if you could replace it. |

The program 'OpenWith Enhanced' already does it: http://extensions.frieger.com/owdesc.php . In fact the Metro floating shit is the biggest UI abomination I have ever seen in Windows. Every Windows 8/8.1 user needs to install OpenWith Enhanced RIGHT NOW!!!
