my desktop folder opens when windows start up
Windows XP Home SP2
For some reason all of a sudden recently, when Windows starts up, my desktop folder opens up. I have no idea why such batch program started running. Can someone be kind enough to tell me how I can stop this from happening. All I want is the display of my desktop when Windows starts up. sn |

for that folder - go to the "Tools" menu and select folder options.
Go to the "View" tab, scroll down to about 5th from bottom- is "restore previous windows folders at logon checked? if so, uncheck. I think this is why that window might be open at logon- I think that is the one to remember windows being open at startup... otherwise you might have accidentally dragged something into your startup folder "snomazushi" wrote in message ...
