52012 2002-06-02 02:14:00 I would like to have Explorer open at My Documents rather than at C:\.
My Documents and its folders are what I use most often.

To force explorer to open a default folder modify the shortcut as follows:

C:\Windows\Explorer.exe /n,/e, C:\My Documents

52014 2002-06-03 02:25:00 Tristran, thanks for replying. However when I try your suggestion I get:'The path C:\My Documents does not exist or is not a directory' This was what I got with my previous attempts. Any further suggestions welcome. Guest (0)
52015 2002-06-04 07:10:00 Hi David - Don't know if this will help - but i use xp and the path to my documents is:
C:\Documents and Settings\Owner\My Documents

Might be how to set the path to it?
