OPening Folders on Startup
In Windows Vista and before in Folder Options I could set it to reopen folders on startup that were open previously in my last session. I don't see that option in Windows 7. Any ideas?ThanksMark Zeserson

Ronnie, So that means you cannot get the folders you had opened to open when you reboot? Thanks Mark

Thanks Mark Hi MarkYes, that's correct.If you have one particular folder that you always use and want it to open on reboot, you can simply create a shortcut to that folder and place it in the All Programs / Startup folder.Hope this helps.Thank You for testing Windows 7 Ronnie Vernon MVP
