Hi Hartmut,
I don't know of any replacements but if your are willing you can make your own using AutoHotkey.
There are both 32 bit and 64 bit versions. Which can be got from here :-
http://ahkscript.org/

I just put this together as a proof of concept.
As it is it just accepts one passed parameter.
Here's is the code.

SetTitleMatchMode 3
; set title match to exact match case and window title
fullfile = %1%
;get the passed filename
SplitPath ,fullfile,filename
;if it contains a path just extract the filename
Run, properties %fullfile%
;run the verb "Properties"
winwait , %filename% Properties
;wait the named window to appear
WinActivate ,%filename% Properties
;then activate it
winwaitclose,%filename% Properties
;wait for user to close it

I've compiled this and used it in a batch file and works ok
Hope this helps.

cheers,
Jan
