help please
 

hi on my m8's p.c. when you go in to my documents then try opening a folder it wont open it but it brings up a search program instead,now when i right click a folder on my p.c. i have open up the top,in the dropdown menu,he has search so obviously by left clicking it,it will do the primary objective ie search and not open it,any ideas what he's done or how to change the first option to open and not search.


ceri

Control Panel > Folder Options. What is that set to to? (The 'General' tab).

PS: I presume it's XP?

the 1st choice in all three options!!!!

and yes its xp

Tried this search folder opens in search - Google Search

First result comes up TLab404 - Why Does any Folder open up Search?

Can't check out the suggestion but seems kosher ... try it and see ....
