Explore RPF files just like OpenIV or CodeWalker just with the big difference that everything is implemented right into your Windows File Explorer!

Compilation

Building is somewhat straight forward. setup VCPKG, git clone the repository and run generate_vs2022.bat. Afterwards you can open the generated solution and build it with CTRL+B.

Once it's been build, you can run .\enable_extension.bat as admin to enable &register the Shell Extension within your explorer. Please note that .\enable_extension.bat will restart your explorer! So if you have done some work that is not saved, tough luck :/

Debugging

Debugging is a bit weird as we're loading a Shell Extension we must debug the explorer.exe (before we load our DLL) Though, it's pretty straight forward as I've written some automized scripts for them.

Run .\enable_extension.bat as admin, dont open an explorer window. Attach the debugger on Visual Studio (Debug -> Attach To Process) to explorer.exe
