Good day. My question is, When I double click on the C: icon in My Computer
it opens the search. I right clicked on the c: icon and search has replaced
open, now its is 2nd on the list with Search.. on top. How can I edit this
to get Open back on top so that when I double click on the icon it opens it.

Thanks to all that reply

Try this first.

Start | Run | Type or paste:

regsvr32 /i shell32

Click OK.

If that doesn't fix it, see these...
