the folder by right clicking then scrolling down to 'open' but this is
becoming rather anoying.It has only just started to do this, any ideas.

Click Start | Run and type or copy/paste this command:

regsvr32 /i shell32.dll

Click OK

This problem occurs when you alter the Drive / File Folders entries by the
File Types dialog.

You're welcome Marty. This can happen, for example, if you add a "Command
