Total Commander (English) • How to make Total Commander the default explorer for ALL programs (including PotPlayer and Slack)?

I have used the the registry file use Total Commander as the default explorer that programs use when they try to open a folder.
It works with most programs, however, some programs like PotPlayer and Slack still open Windows File Explorer.

For example, after I download a file in Slack, I click on "open containing folder" but it opens in Windows File Explorer.
For PotPlayer (a video player program), I right-click a file in the Playlist section and then choose "Add & Edit > Open file location of selected item".

Could there be something I'm missing in my .reg file?

Code:

 [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell] @="open"  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\open]  ; Adding "/T" opens the folder in a new tab instead of overriding the last active tab. [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell\open\command] @="c:\\Program Files\\totalcmd\\TOTALCMD64.EXE /O /T \"%1\""  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell] @="open"  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\open]  [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell\open\command] @="c:\\Program Files\\totalcmd\\TOTALCMD64.EXE /O /T \"%1\""
