    Hi:

    Sometimes, when I Open windows XP one or more folders that I had open when I closed that last session open automatically. It appears that during the previous shutdown, these were not closed automatically.

    Is there some simple way to ensure that all windows are automatically closed when one closes windows and shuts down?

    regards

    In Windows Explorer->Tools->Folder Option->View tab->UNcheck the option "Restore previous folder window at logon "
