Root

I think it would help some people if there was a comment in the code on how to write the file path for your root directory (if this can even be stated succinctly). It took me some time to figure out that, despite two colons in the path seeming wrong, I needed to use: "file:///Z:/some path/"

I haven't added a comment about it myself because (obviously) I'm no expert.

• %20 instead of a space doesn't seem essential, but could spaces problems in some cases?
• Are forward slashes obligatory, or can they be back slashes?
• Is it always three slashes?
• Case sensitivity?

Refreshing

Is there a way to force the menu to refresh after edits to the macro? Or do you have to exit the entire suite including quickstarter?
