My Computer open in search

L

L.G.

Hi, when I left click My Computer icon it goes to search instead of open ,
I believe it was not like that before .
Please correct me if I'm Wrong .
Let me explain better if I can:
I left click or double click lets say My Documents or any other folder and
the folder will open and show the content.
Now when I single click or double click My Computer it open in search
instead of opening the content.
I think it was not like that before, Any Ideas?
Thanks. LG.

My Computer or for folders and drives?

This problem occurs when you alter the "File Folders" entries via File Types dialog, to add a "Command Prompt here" or "Print Directory" feature for folders. (example)

Click Start/Run and type this command to fix this problem:
regsvr32 /i shell32.dll
