Click on my computer and open it up click on tools/options/Folder Options window will pop up. In the middle of the general tab is a bullet box to choose open each folder in the same window. Under the view tab uncheck the box that says remember each folders view settings and then click on the button to set all settings like current folder and that should fix it.

I have an address bar on my task bar that I use to launch local folders and web addresses. If I enter a local folder or drive, an explorer window pops up as expected. Annoyingly though, if I click any of the folders, they open in a new window. I have the 'open folders in the same window' option set. This doesn't happen if I type a drive from the run box. Any ideas? My freshly installed PC at home doesn't do this! ================================== To Unsubscribe, set digest or vacation mode or view archives use the below link. http://thethin.net/win2000list.cfm
