Explorer /e,C:\Windows
This command starts Windows Explorer using the default view, with the focus on C:\Windows.

Explorer /root, C:\Windows\Cursors
This command starts Windows Explorer at the C:\Windows\Cursors folder. This example uses C:\Windows\Cursors as the "root" directory for Windows Explorer.

NOTE: Note the comma after the "/root" switch in the command.
