Right Click Menu in My Computer

[fgh]

Hi:

When I right click on a hard drive name in My
Computer, 'Search' apprears on top of 'Open'. How can I
set it back to its normal configuration. One other way of
rephrasing my problem is when I double click on a name of
a hard drive in My Computer, search window opens instead
of the content of that drive which is something that I
expect.

Thanks,
F.

Easy fix:

Go to Start/Run and type in: regsvr32 /i shell32

If that doesn't correct the issue (and it should) use this automated edit:

Search or CMD Opens When Double Clicking a Folder or Drive (Line 18)

To use the VBS File: Download .vbs file and save it to your hard drive (you
may want to right click and use Save Target As). Double-click the vbs file.
You will be prompted when the script is done.

I had the same problem with C: drive. When double click on C: it opens
Search dialog.
Just edit registry key HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell and change value from
"find" to "none". That's all, hope it helps!
