re: Question about 'Why don't folders remember their position, sort order, or icon size?' Saturday, June 26, 2004 at 8:40 am Windows XP Annoyances Discussion Forum Posted by Shane (1 messages posted) If you look in the c:\windows directory, you'll see two icons that are for Explorer. "explorer" is just a 'windows explorer command' (right click and view the properties) and the other "explorer.exe" is the Explorer application. Try opening both of them and you'll see that 'explorer' opens straight to your C: drive while 'explorer.exe' opens into 'My Documents' (gag me with a fork). Just create a shortcut to 'explorer' where ever you like to launch explorer from and you're set. I nearly fainted when I discovered that. My Documents makes me puke. Hope this helps.
