Issues with explorer

[tactical.construct]

I have a small issue with windows explorer (the "file manager"), and
its really starting to annoy me.

If I do not have the folder tree open, double clicking on a folder
brings up a new explorer menu, and I do not want it to do that. I have
gone throught the Folder Options and told it to open in the same window
anyway, but it simply refuses.

If someone could tell me how to do this, i would appreciate it.

Open each folder in the same window:

Thanks ramesh.

I knew it has something to do with those two reg. entries, i just
couldn't figure it out. Poked around in your site too, but i missed it.

Thanks again!
