Hi Tricia,

Hi when I click on the explorer icon the window opens with my documents as
the focus. How do I change the settings so that it opens my C: drive?
Thanks Tricia
Right click on the desktop, create a shortcut and and type this into
the Target path:

To have C: open (No folders)
%SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe /root, C:\

To have C: open expanded: %windir%\EXPLORER.EXE /e,c:


The /e switch tells Windows Explorer to open in the two pane explorer
mode
and the c:\ tells it to open in folder C:\. If you omit the /e switch,
Windows Explorer opens in a single pane view.

Good luck
