I'm not the only one who uses it. I'm trying to keep people out of the
important files like the C drive where all the Windows files are stored. The
thing is that when you open a window you can see that it has the address bar.
At the right of it it has a down arrow that you can click and it's a
drop-down menu type thing. The menu then shows (folders) the icons to the
other drives, and (on the internet) recently viewed sites. There's a way
where you can just click the arrow but nothing happens. I'm not too good
with computers so I'm not sure it it makes sense.
