    This one has me a bit perplexed!

    While I have seen Windows act strangely before, have never seen this one before.

    I just took a call and the following was system behavior.

    When Double-Click on drive, either local disk or mapped network drive, Windows search results window comes up instead of the drive contents. When mapping a new network drive, the search results window comes up instead of the drive contents.

    Yet if Right-Click & Open...it displays the contents of the drive.

    Any ideas on this one?
    I support a software package and not the Operating System so this was beyond what I could do.
