Anything of that nature would entail Windows API programming; it's not something Office could do on its own. Accordingly, moving your post to the Windows Forum.

Another option might be to create a vbscript that you could run from Windows Explorer (e.g. by double-clicing on it) after accessing the folder and have that script initialize the apps and open all their files.
