    WIn XP - Explorer.exe

    When opening "Windows Explorer" in Windows XP Home, the task bar always opens "My Documents" and displays all the folders and files contained in it. I have to open "My Computer" to see the various drives.

    Is there anyway I can change it so that "Windows Explorer" automatically opens "My Computer" as it used to in Win 98SE.

    Many thanks

    There's probably a way to do it that I don't know about, but I always open Explorer using the keyboard shortcut "Windows key" + E. It's faster and takes you to the My Computer view automatically
