Create a shortcut like this: %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e,

hi

I've tried both of these methods & the folder insists on expanding when
Explorer is opened. Same result on 2 different machines & after rebooting.
Is there any other ways?

thanks

What do you want to do? You didn't say.

%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e,::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
