open not search

Somehow my settings on my noptebook changed. Of course, I most lkey am the
culprit, but I donnot know how to fix this. I even recruited some help, and
they have also seemed to overlook the area where this change can be made.
When I double click on a folder rather than open the folder the search option
comes up. The only way to open the folder is to right click and scroll to the
open option. You can imagine how annoying this is. How and where do I change
this option. I've opened and tried t restore just about everything in the
Control Panel to try and remedy this. Please Help!! Thanks.
