Open Files and Folders Quickly on Windows 10 with Just 1 Click

Instructions for quickly opening files and folders on Windows 10 using shortcuts, customizing context menus or AutoHotkey, helping you work more efficiently.

Open files with just 1 click on Win 10

Step 1 : Open File Explorer. Next, click File and select Options or Change folder and search options to open the Folder Options window.

Step 2 : On the Folder Options window, access the General tab , under Click items as follows, select Single-click to open an item .

Next you will see 2 more options below the Single click to open an item option :

# Underline icon titles consistent with my browser

# Underline icon titles only when I point at them

Your task is to choose one of these two options.

If you choose the first option, File Explorer will add an underline under each file name. If you choose the second option ( Underline icon titles only when I point at them ) it will only underline the file name when the mouse pointer is hovering over the file. This is the best option for users because it doesn't clutter the files.

Finally click Apply to complete the process.

Now, you can open files and folders quickly on Windows 10 with just one click using shortcuts, custom context menus or AutoHotkey. These methods help optimize operations and save time when working on the computer.
