I would like to customize "Explore" to always open to a specific folder when
I open it. Does anyone know how I can do this?

Create shortcuts on the desktop....

Here are some examples:

To have Explorer open on the root of H:
The command line should read:
C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe /e, H:

To have Explorer open on the root of C:
The command line should read:
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /e, C:

To have Explorer open on the root of D:
The command line should read:
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /e, D:

To have Explorer open F:\My Files
The command line should read:
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /e, F:\My Files

To have Explorer open to D:\My Documents
The command line should read:
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /e, D:\My Documents

To have Explorer open to root in a single pane mode
The command line should read:
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /n, c:

To have Explorer open up to My Computer:
The command line should read:
C:\WINDOWS\EXPLORER.EXE /e,/n,::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}

To have Explorer open up to My Favorites:
