Get current active windows explorer address

What is the way to get current active windows explorer address.

Welcome to the forums.

This works in XP by reading the Address bar. (Could be different in another OS)

The bar always exists and doesn't need to be visible.

MsgBox(0, "Explorer Path", ControlGetText('[CLASS:ExploreWClass]','','Edit1'))
