Missing folder context menu "Open in new window"

When I right click on a certain folder in Altap I miss a context menu "Open in new window" which opens the corresponding directory in a new, second Altap window.

How can I enable this context menu?

Salamander does not have this functionality, but you can use the user menu to emulate this function.

Options > Configuration > User menu
Inser new menu item and name it (F2).
Command: $(SalDir)\salamand.exe
Argumenst:-R "$(FullPath)\$(Name)"
Initial directory: $(FullPath)
[_] Execute through shell

This will start a new Salamander instance with the current or selected directory opened in a the right pane.

Don't forget to store the configuration.
