It should be available in Windows Explorer as well, but I see that it isn't.
I'll take a look at the two articles you referenced as well, but they appear
to only address IE, not Windows Explorer. I'll keep looking though :)

What makes this so hard is when you enter Explorer you also get Internet
Explorer. In Google if you enter

explorer -internet

you'll get listings with the word explorer and not internet

Hasn't help me find the answer and I'm starting to wonder if it can be

Glad you gave up.
Even if you did figure out how it would only be a matter of time before a
purveyor of porn found out and started adding buttons to Windows Explorer
via script. One click access to nubile young ladies from anywhere within
the Windows operating system. It's a tool use it don't abuse it.
