Double Click opens search windows!

[Guest]

Hello, I would appreciate it if someone could tell me some suggestion in
order to solve the following problem:
In the Windows Explorer, or My PC, when i double click on any folder,
instead of showing me what is inside, it opens a search window, no matter
where I am.
The thing is that this issue is driving me crazy, cause every time I want to
enter to a folder, I have to right click , and choose explore... So, it is a
big waste of time.

Thanks in advance for any suggestion you could make.

Go to Start/Run and type in: regsvr32 /i shell32

If that doesn't correct the issue (and it should) use this automated edit:

Search or CMD Opens When Double Clicking a Folder or Drive (Line 18)

To use the VBS File: Download .vbs file and save it to your hard drive (you
may want to right click and use Save Target As). Double-click the vbs file.
You will be prompted when the script is done.

NOTE: If your anti-virus software warns you of a "malicious" script, this
is normal if you have "Script Safe" or similar technology enabled. These
scripts are not malicious, but they do make changes to the System Registry.
