tjhart85 Posted October 4, 2008 Share Posted October 4, 2008 Does anyone know the registry setting to make tree view the default?I know how to set this within windows [Tools->Options->File Types->Folder->Advanced->explore], but not through the registry, so I can make it unattended.Any ideas? I've done a search and it came up with nothing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Geej Posted October 5, 2008 Share Posted October 5, 2008 In XP, to open explorer.exe in tree view, the command would be explorer.exe /eIn the registry, there are some entries inHKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}\shell\explore\commandexplorer --> %SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe /e,/idlist,%I,%L& HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\CLSID\{0CD7A5C0-9F37-11CE-AE65-08002B2E1262}\shell\open\commandopen --> %SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe /idlist,%I,%LI suppose you can change the 2nd registry key from %SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe /idlist,%I,%Lto%SystemRoot%\Explorer.exe /e,/idlist,%I,%LI think that should work.

tjhart85 Posted October 8, 2008 Author Share Posted October 8, 2008 I can't get that to work. I already knew where it was in the registry.I'm looking for some way to make it unattended, so it can be the default behavior when I install XP from my disc.
