Windows Explorer question

Archived from groups: microsoft.public.windowsxp.basics (More info?)

Where do I go to learn how to set Windows Explorer so it will always open on
the C drive in the left pane with all the folders and files displayed in the
right pane? Thanks in advance.

Road Runner--No, I can open it OK.. But when it opens I want it to open
always with the C drive selected in the left pane and the C drive folders
and files showing in the right pane. In other words, I want to create a
Windows Explorer default that does not open on "My computer". Thanks for
your help, however.
