New explorer window without new process?

[daanodinot]

I was wondering if it would be possible, in AutoIt, to launch a new explorer window without creating a new process. Right now, I'm using this:

ShellExecute("explorer.exe", $path)

This works wonderfully except for the fact that it creates a new explorer process every time it's executed.

If you for example look at the "WinKey + E" shortcut, you notice that no new processes are created however often you use the shortcut. I would like to have the same functionality. Would this be possible?

Ugh

Thanks very much!
