- Double clicking opens search function
- Posted by HtheGator on December 25th, 2005
My Grandmother did "something" to her computer and now when she double clicks
on a folder it opens the "search" function instead of opening the folder. If
you right click on the folder and go to "open" nothing happens. If you right
click on the folder and go to "explore" the folder opens. How do I re-set
the double click function to open the folder when it is double clicked?
Thank you.
