Wanted: Command line prompt to launch Windows Explorer pointed to X:\

[L. Casey]

I wish to launch Windows Explorer and have it point directly to my X:\

Currently, I use "C:\WINNT\explorer.scf X:\", but it doesn't work.
Could someone provide for me the exact text string.

Thanks in advance,
LC

As a general rule, programs are invoked via an .exe file, i.e.

C:\WINNT\explorer.exe X:\

Edit the shortcut's "Target" to read;
%systemroot%\explorer.exe /e,E:\
Where E:\ is the drive and or directory you wish to expand.
