        Which command line arguments are available can be seen under ? menu.
        But you will find out that shortcuts.xml isn’t one of them.
        What you can do so is to create a batch file which
        copies your modified shortcuts.xml over the default one,
        which, of course, should be saved beforehand.

        Concerning favorites.dat, what should this file hold?
        Doesn’t seem to be a standard npp file.

        Cheers
        Claudia

          Favorites.dat is used by the Explorer plugin…and Claudia’s proposed technique should work just fine for it as well.
