re: Comment about 'Force Explorer to Start With the Folder You Want' Wednesday, November 19, 2003 at 7:59 am Windows 98 Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Paul (7 messages posted) Just came across this thread.. I'm running XP Professional-(just learning it). I want my explorer to show in the left pane like it did on my old Win98 system. Had "C" listed at the top of pane when opened. I now have "my documents", then "my computer" and have to expand this to get to "C" drive. How/where do I go to change left pane to open with "C" drive on top, or even "A", then "C"? thanks PAUL On Monday, March 25, 2002 at 12:27 pm, Tim wrote: >You can easily do better than this tip.
