Two pane folder view

J

John Garate

win XP home, SP-2
I like to open my folders in the two pane view (folder tree in the left
pane). Is there a way to make this the default setting so that when I double
click on a folder it opens with two panes? I'd rather not have to right
click the folder and choose Explore.

Set Explore as default.

Under...
Start | Run | Type: control folders | OK |
File Types tab | Scroll down to and Select: (NONE) Folder |
Advanced button | Highlight: explore | Set Default | OK |
Apply | OK

Set Default
[[Sets the selected command as the command to be carried out when the file
is invoked.
The default command for the file is shown in bold on the shortcut menu for
the file.]]

This may change some other things that you may not like.

Remember what you did so you can change the default back to Open.
