Hi,

when Windows Explorer opens up (in XP) the default folder that gets the
focus is My Documents. I want to change that so that one of my drives (or
subfolders) gets the focus when I open Windows Explorer.
Got milk ?

>Got milk? Yes, but it is sour. "My Documents" is the

default folder that WindowsXP exposes. If you change it
to another drive or folder, it will default back.
