Yes, it's Alt + C.

Click the Start button, choose Help and Support, search for

Internet Explorer keyboard shortcuts

for a bunch more.

Windows Explorer CTRL I shortcut

I've been using the Ctrl I shortcut from Windows Explorer in XP for quite
some time to get to my favorites. I have directories that I bounce in and
out of all day
there for quick navigation.
In XP this works for both Windows Explorer and Internet Explorer.
In Vista, it works ONLY for Internet Explorer.

I have my Vista boxes set up similiar to how my XP boxes are set up but
from Vista I have to go up and click the Folders arrow to pull down the
Folders pane. This is making me crazy.
Is there any known shortcut to access the Folder Pane
in Vista from within the Windows Explorer?

Thanks in advance,
bob.

Very Cool!
Sorry for the delay in this reply.
I'm on my XP box at work but will check this as soon as I get home.
Thanks much for the reply.
I really appreciate it!

Bob.

Re: Windows Explorer CTRL I shortcut

I had already been to "Internet Explorer Shortcuts".
I am looking for Windows Explorer Shortcuts.
Alt + C is an internet explorer shortcut.
Thanks just the same.

Go to Help and Support and search for "Keyboard Shortcuts". In the found
list, click Keyboard Shortcuts. Look at Windows Explorer shortcuts and
General Keyboard Shortcuts.

Re: Windows Explorer CTRL I shortcut

Thanks Ronnie
I appreciate the reply.

The point I am trying to make is...

The listed shortcuts do not include anything for toggling to the
favorites ( or >Folders ) view.
