I have a question, is it possible to default to a specific
search location? Can you set the default to be something
other than my documents? If anyone knows if this is
possible, I would appreciate any advice you can give.
Thanks.

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