Custom “Windows Explorer” for Powershell GUI scripts

Simple and lightweight – perfect to use as a function within PowerShell scripts. I had issues with Powershell GUI scripts, STA mode, and FolderBrowserDialog – it would cause a .NET unhandled exception each time you launched the FolderBrowserDialog, so I built this.

Use Case: lets say you have a script that requires an end user to select a .csv file. You can run…

Start-miniExplorer -ShowFilesWithExtensionOnly csv 

…and this will only show files with the .csv extension, in the current folder structure.
