Hi --

I've tried, to no avail, to change the default startup folder for my Windows Explorer. I followed the instructions offered in this MS Knowledgebase article: http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;307856. Nothing seent to work. It keeps opening to the My Documents folder

All I want is for Windows Explorer to open at the root of my C drive. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Thanks
John
