Smile double click folder
when you double click a folder,search window opens,
to fix you must use the registry.
start-run-type regedit-ok
CLICK ON HKEY-CLASSES-ROOT\DIRECTORY\SHELL
on the default key right click modify in value box type NONE
CLICK OK close registry your done.now when you double click
your folder opens the way it should.good luck.
