How can I have Windows Explorer open by default to My Documents instead of
My Computer?

Thanks! Tony
 
Anthony,

You could do it this way:

Right-click | New | Shortcut
Paste in on one line:
%systemroot%\explorer.exe /e, %userprofile%\my documents
Click NEXT
Type a name for the shortcut
Click FINISH

I hope this helps,

Click to expand...

Why not just put a shortcut to My Documents on the desktop, taskbar,
wherever.
 
Thanks for the replies. I have a strongly-engrained habit of opening
explorer with WinKey-E. This would be my preferred solution.

Thanks,
Tony
