Hi all,
When I open 'My Computer', I'd like it to default with
folder view (folders listed on left hand side). Any suggestions
as to how I might enable this ?
TIA |

Excellent !! Thanks.
You might have one further fix for me. All folder views/settings seem
to remain when opening explorer again ..... except for the status bar.
I need to enable this each time I open windows explorer or my computer. >> Stay informed about: Folder view in My Computer |

I'm new to this forum and hope that I can ask a question as a reply to this thread as it is related.
Q. When I open Windows Explorer, it opens with My Documents expanded and all else collapsed. I want to have it open with My Documents collapsed and the main drives, C & D, expanded. Can this be done? >> Stay informed about: Folder view in My Computer |
