Hello there
I cant seem to finsd how i can fix my default action when i double click on
folers.
when I right click on a folder, it shows thtat the defualt action is set to
"search", which has become very annoying. I would like to reste the action
back to "open" so i dont have to right click and open folders.

I know there is a way to do this in the registry, but i am not familiar with
this, as I am a 16 year old student! :p

If anyone cna help me i would greatly appreciate it.
