38496	2002-03-09 23:48:00	What method do you use to get into Windows Explorer? A quick way is to get to it is WindowsKey+E If you are using the shortcut. Right click on it choose properties and change the start in location to C:\ Not sure if that'll work as it didn't when I tried it on WinXP.	Guest (0)

38499	2002-03-10 00:08:00	Thanks Mike works a charm. Though I am too use to Win+E but I'll remember that method. Are there any other switches you can use?	Guest (0)

In your case i would set it to 'C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /n,/e,C' . BTW, i run 98SE, so i am not 100% sure that you can do the same with ME, but it is east enough to look.	Guest (0)
