Default File Folder Error

For some reason when i try to access a File Folder (any), the search window
opens. i know it has something to do with the Folder Options/file types.
Under advanced it states: FIND in bold. I need some help because this is very
irritating. Thanks!

Open a run command and type in:
regsvr32 /i shell32.dll click [OK] and Reboot your machine and try to
open a file or folder.
