Windows 2000 - Do not open Explorer in the default folder

November 29, 2013
Updated: December 6, 2021
Quick overview:

Den herkömmlichen Windows-Explorer erreichen sie am besten im Startmenü. Er bietet vielfache Optionen wie z.B. Dateien kopieren, umbenennen oder verschieben. Leider öffnet sich mit dem Explorer immer der Ordner Eigene Dateien. Um nun einen anderen Ordner anzeigen zu lassen, müssen sie folgendes tun:

1. Klicken sie mit der rechten Maustaste auf die Verknüpfung des Explorers und wählen Sie Eigenschaften.. Es erscheint ein neues Fenster mit mehreren Einstellmöglichkeiten. Unter Ziel finden sie den Eintrag %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe.

2. Ändern sie diese Zeile in %SystemRoot%\explorer.exe /e,C:\Programme um damit der Explorer zukünftig im Ordner Programme startet. Sie können hier jeden beliebigen Ordner ihrer Festplatte angeben.

NOTE FOR NEW PUBLICATION: This article was produced by Sandro Villinger and comes from the Windows Tweaks archive, which has been built up since the late 1990s.

Founded Windows Tweaks as a teenager in 2001, his helpful PC tricks made it Germany's most visited Windows site (at the time Sandro looked like this). He then went on to write for international publications such as PC-Praxis, Computerbild, PCWorld in the USA, IMTEST.de and Hifi.de. Sandro's main job is as Global Product Marketing Lead and Consultant for various global tech companies, including Microsoft, AVG, Avast, Nero, TeamViewer, Swiss IT Security Group and now currently in the fintech sector for Gendigital. But he can't get rid of his passion and shares his tweaks here again. Privately, he enjoys traveling the world and loves Asia, especially Japan, Singapore and Korea, but also natural places like Iceland and the Nordics. You can reach Sandro via e-mail.
