Perfect!
Only issue will be varying possibilities of titles for windows explorer window,
but, can work around that.

foreground/focus?
Find and activate it by matching its window title.
import win32com.client
shell = win32com.client.Dispatch('WScript.Shell')
if shell.AppActivate('Explorer'): # put a better match here.
print 'Did it.'

If, for example, I use something like following command line call/command
to launch an instance of windows explorer, in a specific location, with a
specific file highlighted/selected, the issue is that it seems to, possibly be
hovering in background/not actually taking focus on my windows7 64 bit machine:
explorer /select,c:\temp\testFile.txt
Wondering if there's a relatively simple way to bring a specific, external
window/application into foreground focus?
TIA
