G.P.N.L. c.v.a.

Before - and on another computer - when I open Windows Explorer, the folders
show immediately.
Now - after re-installation - each time I open Windows Explorer, I have to
open "Folders" manually.
How can I correct this on thsi computer ?
BTW, "Tools\Folder Options\View\Apply to all Folders" does not work !
Tx in advance.

Not sure if this is what you want, but in my Desktop shortcut, I added
the following:

C:\WINDOWS\explorer.exe /n,/e,c:

This opens Explorer with C: drive expanded in the left pane and the
selected folder's subfolders displayed in the right pane.
 
To set the Folder Tree as default:

1. Open "Folder Options" then select the "File Types" tab.

2. Scroll down to "(NONE) Folder" and click it, then click the "Advanced" button (at the bottom).

3. Click on "explore" then click the "Set Default" button.

4. OK, Apply, OK.

An easier way to set the folder tree as default:

Open the Run box and enter:
reg add HKCR\Folder\shell /ve /t REG_SZ /d explore
