  Dear Jean, I am a heavy user of QAP's great "Live Folder" functionality. Big efficiency gain for me.
  
  However, I have one small suggestion -> just have a look at the screenshot below:
  

  1. In folders with sub-folders, it's impossible to directly open the folder when clicking the red marked region
     
  2. It's only possible when moving the mouse to the right and clicking in the green region
     
  3. My wish: When clicking the red region, please already directly open the clicked folder. This saves time and reduces user's frustration (at least I always intuitively click on my folders under the mouse, in case I wanna open it)
     

  Hopefully a simple modification making me and probably others as well super-happy :-)
  
  Thanks for considering this change, could very well also be an "option" to be selected, just in case some users might prefer the current mode of operation. Questions? Problems? Coffee? Let me know :-)
  
  (Hmm, having issues pasting an image and BBCode also didi not work; trying to paste a simple link, not ideal, now you have to click in order to see my screenshot, but should work) SCREENSHOT-LINK: https://pasteboard.co/GD7DI52raEUW.png

  I'd like to do it but it is not possible with standard Windows menus used by QAP. The is why the folder "itself" is entered as a first item in the submenu.
  
  See other examples of things that can't be done by QAP.

  The answer is probably here:

  Thanks for the coffee :-)

  Mmmh - "everything's possible" ;-)
  
  Since QAP is based on AHK v1 code, check this out, I think it's exactly the "Live Folder" menu functionality without the double display of the first item in the submenu. This would be an improvement as well, since we don't waste the redundant display. What do you think: https://www.autohotkey.com/boards/viewtopic.php?t=69155

  I tested the app (https://www.computoredge.com/AutoHotkey/...kLinks.ahk) and can't see how it does what you wish. Could you indicate precisely where/how it is done?

  Apologies - indeed, this script does not address my wish. Clicking the parent folder does not open it :-( .... Will search further, I was thinking=hoping we don't need to revinvent the wheel.
