Windows explorer

There is a command line that can be inserted into a
shortcut icon to explore any given drive or folder. It
goes like path\explore.exe and then some switches and then
the path you wish to explore.
You can use this as a desktop icon which you can double
click. I prefer to explore rather than just open a folder.
Does anyone know what this is?

Try /e, like this:

Explorer.exe /e,C:\



.
I found something else, but I don't know what it all
means, and this works:
%windir%\explorer.exe /n,/e, C:\My Documents

Does anyone know where to find a list of the switches for
explorer?
