That's awesome! I can't believe I haven't seen this before! Kinda reminds me of that trick where you can hold down the Ctrl key while selecting multiple windows from your taskbar and then right click to vertically/horizontally tile windows.

Not only Windows Folder but you can open any folder. lets say you have 'C:\Temp' folder. To open it just write '..\Temp'

Get even faster by doing:

<Start Key> + r

This will open the run window for you. Just removes the mouse movement and a click, but still faster.

Actually, you can start pretty much anything (files, executables, folders) that is on your PATH environment variable :)
