Windows Explorer Suggestion

Me and many of the people I know never use the My Documents folder, that's
opening automatically when starting Windows Explorer. I suggest a option to
be added, so the user can select a folder of his choice to open instead (e.g.
D:\Games). It really will be helpful . Thank you.

RE: Windows Explorer Suggestion

You can already do that. Here's how:

If you want to open Windows Explorer on a certain drive or folder go to your
Windows Explorer button, right click and open Properties. In Target type
C:\Windows\Explorer.exe /n, /e, C:

The "C:" is the variable. If you want to open in your D Drive then you
would replace the last C: with D:. If you want a specific folder then
replace the C: with the path to that specific folder.

Hope this helps.

David
