No.
Maybe FindExecutable() would return Explorer in that case?
Otherwise you could use  GetOpenFileName()  for that?

Well, if you don't want to use ShellExecuteEx, then maybe
ShowMessage( "I don't know how to process that file." );

Otherwise, I suppose you could try to hack into ShellExecuteEx because
it's supposed to use CreateProcess internally, so there must be a
mechanism for OpenWith inside there that you might be able to tap
into.  Not saying it's a good idea. Depends on how badly you want to
avoid ShellExecute.

I don't recall seeing why it is you want to go through all this pain.
You want to know the Window spawned by executing something the user
clicks on, but "How does the user Select something"?  And Why aren't
you limiting those selections to something you can handle?
