/Select

The parent folder opens and the specified object is selected.

<sub object>

Specify the folder unless /select is used. The default is the root

Examples: Explorer /e, /root, \\Reports

opens an Explorer window at \\Reports.

Explorer /select, C:\Windows\Calc.exe

opens a folder at C:\Windows (or activates one that is currently open) and selects Calc.exe.

Explorer /e, /root, \\Source\Internal\Design\Users\Gary\Archive

opens a folder to the Archive folder above. This is a good way to create a dedicated, remote, documents archive folder. A link to this folder (\\Source\Internal\Design\ Users\Gary\Archive) can then be placed in the SendTo folder for quick routing of documents.
