Double-click the NoCustomizeThisFolder
value in the right pane, type 0 (zero) in the Value data field, and click OK. Do
the same for the NoCustomizeWebView and ClassicShell values. (If any of these
values are absent, skip ??™em.)
And finally, navigate to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\policies\Explorer, and if the Explorer key is present, set the
same three values to 0 (zero). Close the Registry Editor when you??™re done,
restart Windows, and try again.

If you??™ve removed Windows Shortcut from Explorer??™s New
menu, another way to make one is to open your Start menu
and type explorer.exe in the Search box (the .exe extension
is necessary). Using the right mouse button, drag the
explorer.exe entry from the search results onto an empty area
of your desktop, and then select Create Shortcuts Here from
the menu that appears. Right-click on the newly created
explorer.exe -Shortcut , select Properties, and choose the
Shortcut tab.
Next, type the following text into the Target field:
explorer.exe d:\myfolder
where d:\myfolder is the full path of the folder you want Explorer to open.
You might see the text %SystemRoot% in front of explorer.exe, which can be
left alone or removed as desired.
Click OK when you??™re done, and then double-click the new shortcut to
try it out. There are actually a bunch of different parameters you can use,
should you feel the need to fine-tune the appearance of the folder tree.
