Drive Open Problems

For some reason Windows has decided I no longer want to open my drives, I automatically want to search them. <_<

Does anyone know how to turn it back to open again... It's really bugging me having to right click just to go look at my hard drive. :canadian:

i had this problem a while back and it pissed the hell out of me... i think at the time i couldn't figure it out, and it annoyed me so much i just formatted and reinstalled... but now, i think this is the solution you need:

this article is probably newer than when i had my problem, i remember looking all over and couldn't find anything.

OK, somebody knew. :shy:

if it's the same thing that happened to me, what happens is, if you're in windows explorer and you dble click on a drive (i think even a folder too), instead of showing you the contents of that next level down, it pops up with the search dialog...

Thanks, that worked a treat.

(Stupid Microsoft and their damned bad testing, how did they not spot that sooner?)
