I cant seem to find a solution to my desired function.
Search results:
1. File is selected: I would like to be able to open parent folder of this file in Everything (same window) with keyboard shortcut (lets say CTRL+M)
2. Folder is selected:I would like to be able to open this folder in Everything (same window) with same keyboard shortcut (CTRL+M from above)
I use Everything 1.5.0.1319a.
I found context menus for this:
1. Right click file -> select name of parent folder in context menu -> "Search in Everything"
2. Right click folder -> "Search Everything 1.5a..." ("Show Search Everything folder context menu item" needs to be ticked)
My "hacks":
2. for folder i found here on forum (can not find where exactly, to give credit):
Everything.ini -> custom_verb01=Search Everything 1.5a...
Tools -> Options -> General -> Keyboard -> "File | Custom Verb 1" -> <MyDesiredKeyboardShortcut> in Result List
1. above wont work as there is no such context menu item on files, so i have no idea
I find it quite usefull to open/browse folders inside Everything without opening external programs. Everything is sufficient for such file operations already, so no need to use outside tools.

Everything 1.5 has a few "Search in Everything" and "Explore in Everything" commands.
Please try setting a keyboard shortcut to "Search path in Everything":
File | Search Path in Everything will set your search.
