You need to create an external tool with a location ${env_var:SystemRoot}\explorer.exe(or cmd.exe) and arguments /select,${resource_loc}. Any selected file or directory can now be displayed in Windows Explorer.

Create an external tool

Go to the external configuration of the tool (you can find it in the corresponding icon on the toolbar):

Then you can create your own external tool:

External tool creation

  • Create a new program (select "Program in the tree")
  • Call it a shell
  • ${env_var:SystemRoot}\explorer.exe
  • /select,${resource_loc}
