Explorer Windows opening in 'my computer '.
By default, Win Explorer opens in the user account (ie: my documents or my pictures etc...). I remember that if you add an order letter to "% SystemRoot%\explorer.exe" ln the Win Explorer shortcut properties box. Explorer opens in my computer (ie: list the drives).
Does anyone know the command line that you want to add to the Solution Explorer to open it in the default workstation?
Thank you.
Maybe, but it's Vista.
Quite simply, referring to the box properties on the shortcut Win Explorer. Specifically the Traget box. A few additional commands must be added to open the Explorer in my computer...
To add the computer to the boot:
1. create a shortcut to the desktop.
Start > right click on computer > display on desktop > right-click on the icon created just the desktop > click on create a shortcut.
2. start > all programs > right click at startup > either open, is open to all users > drag the computer shortcut in the startup folder.
See screenshot:
Reset. You will see the computer folder opens automatically.

File_Place_ no Explorer window opens.
I use CS2. When I choose file - place the gray of the screen on but no file menu pop up for me to choose the location of the file I want to place. The box explore might be popping up off the screen? I have checked the edges and see nothing. I think this happened to me once in photoshop or ID and it seems that I used the arrow keys to move the box. Even reset the default workspace.
I'm new to Illustrator, so it could be that I'm doing something completely clearly wrong, and in this case you can laugh at me as long as you tell me what it is.
Any ideas would be appreciated. Thank you.

Hello
1. don't you make changes to the computer until the problem occurred?
2. what web browser do you use?
I suggest you to try the steps below and check if it helps.
Method 1: Try to put your computer in a clean boot state, and check to see if the same problem happens.
By setting your boot system minimum state helps determine if third-party applications or startup items are causing the problem.
How to troubleshoot a problem by performing a clean boot in Windows Vista or Windows 7:
http://support.Microsoft.com/kb/929135Note: After the boot minimum troubleshooting step, follow step 7 in the link provided to return the computer to a Normal startup mode.
Method 2: Also I recommend you to scan your hard disk from the Microsoft Security Scanner, which would help us to get rid of viruses, spyware and other malicious software.
The Microsoft Security Scanner is a downloadable security tool for free which allows analysis at the application and helps remove viruses, spyware and other malware. It works with your current antivirus software.

Note: The Microsoft Safety Scanner ends 10 days after being downloaded. To restart a scan with the latest definitions of anti-malware, download and run the Microsoft Safety Scanner again.

Very occasionally when I try to open the my computer Explorer window is white and I get a message that I need to format the drive F. I did not have a permanent Drive F and when this happened had no other connected devices.
Drive F is often used, as are other drive letters, by various devices from time to time, such as external hard drives, Flash, my TomTom SatNav players, camera, readers of cards etc.
Can someone explain why this happens and if I can do something to stop what is happening in the future?

Explorer Windows stopped working when opening a folder
Hello
I get this error "Windows Explorer has stopped working" for the past few months, every time I try to open a particular folder that contains 10-15 .avi files. This folder is located on an external hard drive and when I plugged the hard drive of a computer running XP it's the same thing. It throws this error and gives me 2 options,
1. check online for a solution and restart the program.
2. restart the program.
According to the option that I chose it closes all the windows in the Solution Explorer, and nothing happens.
I tried to copy the file from external hard disk to the local computer and the same thing happens when I try to access it. I don't think that's the problem with my computer as the same thing happens also on the XP machine.
Please suggest what to do.
