    When I launch Windows explorer from any source, it opens up my Documents folder and its associated programs and that's all. Any ideas!!

    Welcome to forum, perrysooz. :)

    Are you saying you can't navigate to other any other folder besides My Documents? Every time I click on Windows Explorer, it defaults to Libraries in Windows 7, and My Documents in XP.

    Thanks for the reply. I'm so new at this that I just thought I had a problem. After learning about your defaults, I have come to realize that I have no problem at all!!! Thanks for taking the time to straighten me out.

    Good to hear!

    I remember a time when I didn't know what Windows Explorer was - even though I used it everyday. ;)
