		Description: Customise Windows Explorer

		You can customise the start window of Explorer by using start parameters. To do this, click Start> Run and enter the command Explorer in the text box. Click OK to start Explorer. You could add any of the following parameters after the command. For an even faster method, place a shortcut on your Desktop and modify its Properties. The syntax for Explorer is : Explorer [/e] Directory [/n] [/root, Directory] [[select], Directory]. If no parameter is specified, Explorer will start with a divided window in the main directory C:\. The parameter /e [Directory] starts the Explorer with a divided window in the specified directory, /n starts it in an undivided window without a tree structure. The parameter /root, Directory or root,\\Server name\Directory opens a networked computer’s relevant directory, where the specified directory represents the highest level of directory structure possible. If the call is Explorer/root, ie without specifying a directory name, a window with the contents of the Desktop will open. The parameter /select [Directory] will permit you to mark the mentioned directory in the left half of Explorer window.
