Open containing directory in Windows Explorer from IntelliJ

Is there a way (keyboard shortcut?) to open the folder of the currently opened file in Windows Explorer?开发者_开发技巧

What I mean is this: When a java source file is open in IntelliJ, I'd like to open Windows Explorer on the folder containing that file. Is there a short way of doing that?


Just padding out Peter Lawrey's answer, for Intellij 12.n on Windows 7 the steps for adding explorer as an external program would be:

  1. File > Settings > External Tools
  2. Click on the Plus (+) in the
  3. Name: Open Containing Folder
  4. Group: [select group]
  5. Description: Open Containing Folder
  6. Unselect "Open Console"
  7. Program: explorer [or] C:\Windows\System32\explorer.exe
  8. Parameters: $FileDir$
  9. Working Directory: [leave blank]
  10. Click OK

You can then add the External Tool as a keyed short cut through File > Settings > Keymap

Right clicking on a source file External Tools->Open Containing Folder is another way to use this tool.

As of version 2016.2 you can press Alt+F1 while in the editor and navigate to different view. Choose "Show in file manager". You can even navigate to a corresponding pom.xml from Maven view. Powerful, indeed.


You can try one of these plugins:

  • "OpenContainingFolder"
  • "Open containing folder in a File Explorer"


Just wanted to add to Simon B's answer that based on this article for selecting the file in addition to opening its parent folder in step 8 change "$FileDir$" to "/select, $FilePath$"


You can add explorer as an external program and add a hot key for that. i.e. you will be able to select a directory or file and the same opens in windows explorer.


This help page provides an easier way of doing this in later versions of IntelliJ as follows:-

  1. Hold down CTRL and then left-click the mouse on the tab containing the source code (i.e. the actual tab part at the top).
  2. This will display a folder hierarchy with the filename at the top: To open the folder the file is in, click on the the filename.


Use Open In contextual menu option

Windows 10: use "C:\Windows\explorer.exe" instead. (#7 Program:)


You can assign a keyboard shortcut via setting/keymap. See the image below. Select a folder/sub-folder from the project directory tree and key in the shortcut.
