With MP3TAG 2.31x it worked that I passed a directory to mp3tag.exe as a paramater and it opened that directory after it started. With the latest 2.32x versions it does not work. Has this funcionality been removed? It was a really good behavior. ☹ Is there any other easy solution?

Do you have **/fp:** before the directory path?

I didn't know that this parameter must be used, becuase an older version worked without it. Thank you very much, it works very well! 🕶

This isn't accusatory, it's because I'm very interested...is this documented anywhere?

I don't think it's documented, it was probably mentioned a couple of times in the forum.  
AFAIK there is:  
/fp: (for folders)  
/fn: (for filenames)  
/cue: (for playlists/cue sheets)

You can find out by looking in windows registry, too.
