windows explorer

[Guest]

When you launch windows explorer the view is always with the C: drive
expanded. Is there a way to store the setting so that when it explorer
launches that the C drive tree is collapsed and all you see are the drives
letters?

Hi,
Right-click the Windows Explorer shortcut> Properties> Target. Paste this
into the target field
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /e,/select,c:
That will give you the 2 pane view with My Computer expanded.
