How to open Explorer so that "My Docs" folder does not show


Recommended Posts

Hi all,

I would LOVE to know how to customise explorer so that when you open it, it does not open with the "my docs" folder highlighted and expanded. Id like it to open on "my computer" so that I can instantly see my hard drives on the right side of the explorer window.

Can anyone help me with this as it is driving me nuts!!?

I have tried hiding "my docs" with tweak and re-ordering the position of "my docs" so it appears after "my computer", but I cannot stop my docs from opening expanded.

Please help!!!

Cheers

Warwick

create a shortcut to explorer with a /e,dir switch

i.e. to start in c:drive

shortcut to "explorer /e,c:"

i do not know how to make it work to just open at my computer. that is the best i know

I never launch Explorer from a shortcut, instead I use the Windows Key + E combination and this always opens Explorer in My Computer not My docs.

Hope this helps

Try this: Open Windows Explorer and drag the Explorer icon that looks like a folder w/a magnifying glass on it to the Taskbar.

Shazam! Now when you click on the Explorer icon in the taskbar it automatically open to your C:

Pretty easy!
