Is it possible to set Windows Explorer so that when started, it automaticaly
opens at a certain folder other than MyDocuments?
Alternatively can I move MyDocuments from C drive into a logical partition
and still have Windows Explorer opening it by default?

Click to expand...

Right click on the icon you use to open Explorer & select Properties
Change the Target line to read:
%SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe /e, c:\
This causes it to open with the C:\ drive open & expanded. To select
a different folder change 'c:\' above to the desired folder
