View Full Version : When I try to open any file folder, a search window comes up instead.

Double clicking/pressing return on any highlighted folder
causes it to open up a search window instead of a normal
window showing the contents of the folder.

I now have to right click the folder and click 'Open' in
order to view the contents. Usually, 'Open' is in bold
and is at the top of the list, but now 'Search' is there
instead.

I have a gut feeling that the problem lies within my
folder options.
