I know this has been asked in a subtle different way before (Change the folder that Windows Explorer starts at), but I want to open the Windows Explorer on a folder that is on my desktop in Windows XP.
What I am doing currently is:
%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e,/n,Desktop\Folder
But it redirects me to
"C:\Documents and Settings\<username>\Desktop\Folder"
as a subfolder of c:\
How it looks in the explorer:
Desktop
|->My Documents
|->My Computer
| |->c:\
| |->Documents and Settings
| |-><username>
| |->Desktop
| |->Folder *Shortcut puts me here*
|->Recycle Bin
|->Folder *I want to be here*
Any ideas?
