Explorer window acting up

V

Victor

Greetings,

I have a dual monitor setup. I previously had a problem with Window not
booting up into Window XP theme, got that fixed.

Now, Explorer constantly opens up in the extended desktop and won't open on
the main. I turned off extended and made it clone so it had to open in the
main desktop, then turned it back on, no good. Is there a registry entry
that tells explorer where to open (position wise)?

Thanks in advance

Try making Explorer smaller on the second monitor, move to main
monitor and make it full size. Close, then open.

Tried that (over and over :) ). That didn't work. I also tried closing it
while holding the CTRL key (that used to be a trick to do it) but still no
good.

FIXED The problem. Stupid me :)
For anyone's info: Apparently, wherever Internet Explorer is set to open,
that's where Explorer will too. I opened IE, moved it to where I wanted it,
closed it and tried to open Explorer, and it opened in the right place.

Thanks to all those who pondered this problem
