Cannot open folders
All folders on my computer containing music will not open without me manually
clicking "explore". If I try a simple double-click, a pop-up appears informing me that there is no program "associated" with this file type, and directing me to the Set Associations control panel. Obviously, since folders are neither applications nor file types, they didn't appear in the list. I've rummaged through "Folder Options" but there's nothing of use there. This may be a fairly trivial issue, but it's become extremely irritating of late.

Cannot open folders
Hi Naht,
When you right-click on that particular folder, what is the default option (shown in bold letters) ? -- Regards, Ramesh Srinivasan, Microsoft MVP [Windows Shell/User] Windows® Troubleshooting http://www.winhelponline.com "Naht" wrote in message ...

Cannot open folders
Assuming that "explore" is the default option for all the folders (even for folders containing music files):
What are the additional context menu items shown when you right-click a folder containing music files? I believe this is caused by third-party shell extension(s). -- Regards, Ramesh Srinivasan, Microsoft MVP [Windows Shell/User] Windows® Troubleshooting http://www.winhelponline.com "Naht" wrote in message ...
