OPEN EXPLORER RATHER THAN MY COMPUTER TO VIEW FILES(This is a great tip!! One of the most useful customizations...)
Have you created drive icons for your hard drives and floppy drives on your desktop
If so, you may wish that they opened in the two-paned
Explorer view, rather than in
My Computer.
To change the default view to
Explorer:
1) Open
Explorer (from
Start, Programs, Explorer, or if you have created it, from the
Explorer icon on your desktop).
2) Choose the
View, Options menu.
3) Select the
File Types tab.
4). Under
registered file types, double click on FOLDER.
5) From the list of actions, select
explore.
6) Click on the SET DEFAULT button at bottom right!
Now when you double click on a folder or open a drive icon shortcut Explorer will open instead of My Computer Sponsors: -----------------------------------------------------------------
