Is there an alternative for selecting folders in C#?
Optimally I'd like to use the OpenFileDialog to select folders, or at least something similar to that.
Here you have and OpenFileOrFolder dialog and here another FolderBrowserDialog both Open Source.
Here's a trick that worked for me, it uses the SaveFileFolder
Select Folder Path with savefileDialog

The closest I found myself to what you may want is this:

This is a control that you can place on a dialog (form). It allows selecting files or folders. Here is what my implementation looks like:
Ookii Dialogs libraries have an implementation of a folder browser dialog for Windows Forms and WPF
Ookii.Dialogs.WinForms
Ookii.Dialogs.Wpf
Try out BetterFolderBrowser. It does exactly what you prefer by providing you with an easy-to-use folder-browsing experience that mimics the OpenFileDialog dialog window, and, since it works as a component, you'll be able to easily tweak it properties in Design Mode. It's pretty neat and very handy. Do check it out.
