I would like to create an Explorer shortcut that defines a
particular target directory and also tells Explorer to
have the Folders option activated. My current shortcut
ignores all the command line parameters I have tried. Can
someone point me to documentation or give an example?
Thank you,

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

That did it. Thank you! Where can I find documentation
on other command line switches, etc. for Explorer? I hate
to bother folks for stuff I can look up.
