Cant open folders

[Marco]

Greetings
I can't seem to double click on any of my folders to open
them. I can right click and select 'open' though. When I
double click a folder icon I get a 'search results' page
from the 'search' function
I've tried going into Control Panel and resetting the
defualts on my folder options but it doesn't help. When I
look at the folder object it says that 'Find' is used to
open it. Do I have to change this
Plese help

I, too, have this problem and going to take a look at the
fix. What caused this in the first place? One day the
folders were opening as I expected, the next day they were
opening via the search results. I'd really like to know
what I possibly did to make my OS behave in this manner.

Thanks for the info!!
