Thank you so much!

The last question is how to make /select argument work?

shellLaunch "explorer.exe" "/select" "\\\\S003\maps\001.jpg" 
-- Argument count error: ShellLaunch wanted 2, got 3
 
shellLaunch "explorer.exe" /select "\\\\S003\maps\001.jpg" 
-- Argument count error: ShellLaunch wanted 2, got 1 
 
shellLaunch "explorer.exe /select" "\\\\S003\maps\001.jpg"
--false

the problem with this

If I put

shellLaunch "d:/folder/" "explorer.exe" 
-- it's working
 
shellLaunch "//s003/folder/" "explorer.exe" 
-- it's not working
 
shellLaunch "d:/folder/001.jpg" "explorer.exe" 
-- it's working, but it opens file with windows photo viewer
 
shellLaunch "//s003/folder/001.jpg" "explorer.exe" 
-- it's not working at all

I want it to work all the time locally and from network, and when I use "//s003/folder/001.jpg" I want it to open the folder and inside this folder I want 001.jpg selected

...

It needs to be like this, with "explorer.exe" first, as that's what you're launching:

shellLaunch "explorer.exe" "d:/folder/"

For network locations, try "////location/derp.jpg" (i.e. use two more // at the start)

shellLaunch "explorer.exe"

shellLaunch "explorer.exe" ("//")
