:curse: Greetings, I am using windowsME. when I click on the windows explorer, it opens ok, but the documents folder expands also. Is there a setting that I have wrong that would cause explorer to automatically expand the documents folder? If it has to expand anything, I would rather it expand the C drive.
Thanks for your help.

Right click on the shortcut you use to open Windows Explorer. Erase what's in the "Target" field and type (or copy and paste from here): %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /n,/e,c:\

Click OK.

Click OK.
This doesn't work.. Computer says, it's an invalid path and/or filename.

However here is one that does work: %windir%\Explorer.exe /n,/e,c:\ .... This one will open the windows explorer with the c:\ drive expanded.. Just what I wanted it to do. Thanks for all your help.. Case solved and closed..
