Explorer look
When I start Explorer it shows various sub-folders for some folders but not
for all them though, i.e. all the folders under "Microsoft" for example, and I cannot figure out how to change that so that it only shows the folders under "Local Disk (C  . I have tried just about everything but to no avail. When I first open Explorer it always highlights "Start Menu" with its sub-folders. I have read numerous posts and messages but couldn't find the answer. Any help would be greatly appreciated if I can get rid of this minor annoyance. Thanks a lot.

Thanks but there has to be an easier way to make Explorer "behave" the way
the user wants when it first opens up. "Bob" wrote: Create a shortcut on your desktop to (C . Then for convenience you can drag the shortcut to the taskbar. "Techrookie" wrote in message ...

What is so difficult about creating a shortcut? You only need to do it once.

Thanks guys; I did create the shortcut which works fine but I thought that
there might be another way to do this which was more "natural" so to speak!. No worries.......
