hi

i think i changed how my pc works. when i double click
on 'my computer', then double click on 'local disk c',
instead of opening the folder like it used to, it goes
to 'search' instead. and when i rt. click on the local
disk c folder, i see 'search' at the top of the list
instead of 'open'.

how do it make it so that when i double click on 'local
disk c' it opens the folder instead of search?
 
To fix this, click Start/Run and type this command:

regsvr32 /i shell32
