WinKey+E open the Windows Explorer. Is it possible to change the default
opening `My Computer' to D: drive? (Specific WinKey+E only)

Thanks for any replies.

No.

Assign a Shortcut key

1. Locate or create a shortcut to My Computer.
Right click the shortcut, and then click Properties.

2. Click the Shortcut tab.

3. With the cursor in the Shortcut key box, select the keyboard key you
want to use in combination with CTRL+ALT. Shortcut keys automatically start
with CTRL+ALT. The Shortcut key box will display None until you select the
key and then the box will display Ctrl+Alt+the key you selected. You cannot
use the ESC, ENTER, TAB, SPACEBAR, PRINT SCREEN, SHIFT, or BACKSPACE keys.

Note
Once you assign a shortcut key combination for a specific program, you will
not be able to use that key combination with other programs.

If you forget the key combination for your shortcut, you can follow steps 1
& 2 and review your shortcut keys.

Shortcut tab
Lists the shortcut name, target information, and shortcut key. Allows you to
choose the way the item is displayed when you open the shortcut: in a
standard window, a full screen (maximized), or as a button on the taskbar
(minimized). Also allows you to view the shortcut's target, change the icon
for the shortcut, and open a shortcut as a different user.

Thanks for the reply but not helped. My question is to change the Windows
Explorer behaviour with the `Windows+E' shortcut key.

That's why the first part of the reply said "NO." as - in cannot be done
natively."
 
<LOL> What part of No...
