"Folders" is one of the buttons you can add to the toolbar if it's not there by default. It allows you to toggle between the view with the folder tree and the view without the folder tree. Very useful.

    Hi

    I don't like the Explorer default of not showing the folder structure. So I want the folders on when Explorer launches. Hence the /e flag when launching Explorer.

      To change the default, set HKCR\Folder\shell\(Default) to explore. Underfining said value or setting it to open will restore the default behaviour.

        I did not knew that, thank you.

        But as soon as you use a directory as parameter, you have to use the /e to make it work (on W2K at least)

        And it came to pass that in time the Great God Om spake unto Brutha, the Chosen One: "Psst!"
