From <a href="http://www.winmag.com/listserv/">Tip of the Day</a>:

The Windows Explorer normally opens to your C: drive, but you can make it launch with the contents of any folder you want. Go to your Windows Explorer shortcut, right-click and select Properties. Open the Shortcut tab. Edit the entry in the Target field to read explorer.exe /n , /e , (drive:\path\folder) ,
where (drive:\path\folder) is whichever folder you want to first see when Explorer launches.

I knew we'd had this discussion somewhere before - check out this post for how to get Explorer to open up with all drives collapsed, and instructions on how to edit your Start Menu shortcut.

Hey, I never noticed Caper's last comment on that previous post. So whatcha tryin' to say, Caper? Now you don't think I'm a pretty good guy?
