Windows Explorer

When I open Windows Explorer it expands the tree under Local Disk (C) i.e.,
<C/Users/Don/Roamings/Microsoft/Windows/Start Menu/Programs>

How do I set it to open to show just the local disks, dvd drives, removable
disk etc.

Then I will decide which drive letter to expand.

Instead of opening Windows Explorer for that purpose, is there some reason
why you don't open "Computer" instead as that opens showing all your drives
and will allow you to do precisely what you specify above.

Do you mean you're right clicking on the Orb and choosing Explore from
the menu?.

Use Windows Key + E to open Explorer at the 'Computer' level.

Neil and Michael, both of your suggestions do exactly what I was trying to
do. I was opening WE using the Orb. Still feeling my way around Vista

Thanks for taking the time to respond, I appreciate it.
