Windows Explorer

Whenever I start Windows Explorer, it automatically expands the My Documents
folder. I would much rather it expand My Computer or even one of the drives
under My Computer. Is there a way to change this default on Windows Explorer?

Thanks.

Credit to Will Denny:

Go to Programs>Accessories and right-click on the Windows Explorer
icon. Left-click on Properties and type or copy/paste the following
into the Target box:

%systemroot%\EXPLORER.EXE /e,c:

The above would make Explorer open at the C: drive. Substitute the path
target as desired if C: is not what you want. You can also create a
Desktop icon for Windows Explorer with the same command.

Open the properties of the shortcut to Windows Explorer and change the
target to (e.g.) 'C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe /e,c:' -where /e = expand, c: =
location to open (can be a folder).
