| 397590 | 2005-10-19 02:30:00 | Whenever I open Windows Explorer it opens to My Documents. I don't have anything in MD nor do I use it. Would I be able to open WE in one of my partions perhaps? | Bazman (6587) | ||

| 397592 | 2005-10-19 02:56:00 | Change the Windows Explorer Default Startup Folder Click Start/All Programs/Accessories, and then right-click Windows Explorer. On the menu that appears, click Properties. In the Target box, append the "/root" command-line switch to the "%SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe" command, using the startup location that you want. For example, if you want Windows Explorer to start at the root of drive C, edit the command to the following: %SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe /root, C:\. To have C open expanded: explorer /n,/e,c:\ For it to open to My Documents: explorer /n,/e,%HOMEDRIVE%%HOMEPATH%\My Documents. (Explorer /root, c:\Documents and Settings\%username%\My Documents). To Stop Windows Explorer from opening My Documents HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\CurrentVersion\Winlogon. In the right pane under Userinit, Change the key that reads: C:\Windows\System32\Userinit.exe,C:\Windows\System 32\Userinit.exe (file:///C:/Windows/Syste32/Userinit.exe,C:/Windows/System32/Userinit.exe) To: C:\Windows\System32\Userinit.exe (file:///C:/Windows/System32/Userinit.exe), from here www.kellys-korner-xp.com |
