Is there a line to start Explorer in Vista mode?Different embedding command lines correspond to different Explorer process modes.
The one shown in the screenshot (and below) is what you get when Explorer is started in Windows 10 mode (i.e. Control Panel):
C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe /factory,{5BD95610-9434-43C2-886C-57852CC8A120} -Embedding
The one below is what you get when you provide a folder name on the command line (i.e. a new Explorer file manager process without the desktop and taskbar):
C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe /factory,{75dff2b7-6936-4c06-a8bb-676a7b00b24b} -Embedding
An odd thing is that if you kill all Explorer processes and run one of those embedding command lines, the Explorer process starts, but no window is displayed.
