I know this must sound like a simple question to some of
you but i seriously can't get my folders to open
properly. Every time i double click on some thing to open
it does a search companion thing. I just wish things were
back like the old days when i could double click on
something and it would open instead of me having to right
click it the click on open. Someone....Anyone....thank you
 
Hi Joe,

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.
