Remember previously opened folders on startup

G

Guest

I have Windows 2000 Professional, and prior to my network administrators
installing the latest Windows update, somehow my system was configured to
remember the folders that I had last opened before I shut down, and then
automatically open those windows when I started up my computer in my next
session. I cannot seem to find a folder option or desktop option that
enables that, nor are any of those folders in my "Startup" folder since it
was completely automated in how it remembered which folders to open. This is
a great feature for continuity when returning back to work the next day.

Thanks for any tips you can share.
