Vista - Opening folders in a new window...

09-03-2008

Under Control Panel>Folder Options there is a button that I have checked
that I thought would cause each folder to open in a new separate window.
Obviously, this is not the case, as double-clicking on folders opens them in
that same window.
Can someone tell me how to do this?
