Hi Leo,

take a look at the variable org-file-apps:
M-x customize-variable RET org-file-apps RET

Try adding an entry like this:

[INS] [DEL] Cons-cell:
            Choice: [Value Menu] Links to a directory
            Choice: [Value Menu] Visit with Emacs

I have not tested this (since I am not using Org on Windows), but it
looks to me like it should work.

Regards,
Jan
