No double click

When I double click a folder in Windows Explorer, it now opens the
properties window. Not sure how that happened. Anyone have suggestions on
how to get it back to opening folder instead?

Thanks,
Brett

So, if you right click it is "properties" in bold type?

Run regedit, export a copy of this key to the desktop (click on the key,
select file/export, click on the desktop icon on the left of the save
dialog, give it a name and ok):

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder

Right click it, select edit to open it in notepad. Click edit/select
all/edit/copy. Open a response to this message, click in the message text
area and hit ctrl+v to paste the contents. Send for examination.

Hi Roger,

I don't know what to say because now everything is working. Joy huh?

Thanks,
Brett
