Hi,

While i was costumizing my pc i decided to change the icon used for normal
folders. I accomplished my goal by going to Control Panel>Folder
Options>Extension Types and then changing the icon for folders into the
desired icon.
But now the standard operation to perform on folders is no longer to open
them, it is changed to find! So i tried to change it back, but open is not
mentioned in Control Panel>Folder Options>Extension Types so i can't set open
to be the standard operation, how can I change it back?

Thank you,
Mathias

Search opens after editing Drives or Directories

Type in Start Run

regsvr32 /i shell32

This occurs when you use the File Types dialog to edit Drives or
Directories. You need to type the above each time you use that dialog to
edit those two types.
