Vista Explorer, VERY Annoying, is there a work around?

[Reflex]

I'm generally pleased with Vista, but the most annoying thing is when you
open Explorer it insists on expanding the directory tree,which I then have
to colapse. Is there a setting or registry setting that stops explorer
expanding the directory tree?

Cheers

I do not see that problem. From where are you opening Explorer (how, what
icon/shortcut are you using).

When I open Explorer from within System Tools it opens to the Documents
folder and displays the first level of sub documents.

When I open Explorer by clicking on Computer, it opens the drives on
Computer.

Clicking on various shortcuts has differing results.

You can play around with the Explorer shortcuts to get what you want.
