The error I got before seems to occur only when I execute the explorer command from a Dired buffer or from a cygwin shell.

Another way of quickly browsing a folder when editing an emacs buffer is just pressing “ctrl-x ctrl-f return”. But this does not help us when we want to open a file that can not be opened in emacs such as a pdf.

By the way I rather would like explorer to open the current directory (belonging to the current buffer) than the current file.

If I evaluate the following in the Scratch buffer: (setq fname-temp (convert-standard-filename “f:/numericalexamplecom/.emacs”)) then the value of fname-temp becomes “f:/numericalexamplecom/.emacs” so convert-standard-filename does not convert forward slashes into backward slashes either.
