Configure XP to reopen open folders on restart
Imagine this common scenario: You’ve just installed new software and now have to restart your PC. Normally you would log back in to your usual desktop and manually fid and re-open all the folders you were working in.
If you would like XP to automatically reopen all the previously open folders when you restarted your PC do the following:
1. Open Windows Explorer (Right click the Start menu and select Explore).
2. Click Tools.
3. Select Folder Options.
4. Click the View tab.
5. Under the list of Advanced Settings, scroll down and put a checkmark in the box that says “Restore previous folders at logon”.
6.Click OK.
