View 4 Replies View RelatedI'm trying to set a default view for Windows Explorer but everytime I make my changes Windows doesn't seem to save the settings. I would like Windows Explorer to open with the Explorer Bar on the left with Folder view as the default. I've tried saving the view under options but this doesn't seem to work. If I close Windows Explorer it just goes back to the default view before I made my changes. Also is there a way to have Windows Explorer default to a certain directory?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI am using Windows XP professional, service pack 2, on all machines. If I check "minimize on use", select an application in the "Applications" tab, and click "Switch to", it does not switch to that application but opens another window instead. I have this problem on 3 of the 4 machines I normally use. Can anyone tell me of a configuration setting that changes this behavior? The only difference between the machine that works and the ones that don't is how they connect to the network. The machines with the problem are on my home network connected through a workgroup.
