Explorer Opening at C: Drive string? (again!!)

Post by Mobius »

Search Tech Forum, found nothing...

So, help a forgetful old bastard like me out, and tell me AGAIN, what is the string I need to add to the Windows Explorer shortcut to get it to open at the C Drive Root - rather than stupid My Documents?

Thanks people.

One second.

My computer command line: %SystemRoot%\EXPLORER.EXE /e, ::{20D04FE0-3AEA-1069-A2D8-08002B30309D}
Anywhere else: %SystemRoot%\EXPLORER.EXE /e, D:\Path
Where D = drive, path = folder somewhere (duh).
