Why do I need help all the time... by ryxdp on 05-01-2007 at 10:29 AM
Whenever I open a drive (any type, My Computer -> drive) it opens it in a new window. I get very annoyed at this at times, mainly because I have to go back to the already-open My Computer window and close it.
Obviously I'd like someone to help please...as said before I get angry sometimes...
Thanks in advance

Seems to be already set...
So that's not the problem.

Choosing 'navigate' will always open the drive in a new window. So you must choose the correct menu item (or double click the drive instead).

navigate...?
I only have Open, Explore, Search and Partition Magic 8.0.

Explore = Navigate

I've tried Explore...it still won't work...
I have been playing around with the Folder Options tab where you change icons for file types and make them open in different programs...maybe I'll go look there.
