can anyone tell me how i can have my windows explorer launch with the root contents of the c: drive expanded in the left window pane?

i currently have the default location set to my computer, but i would like the root folders under the c drive to automatically show on the left, is this possible?

thx b

I don't have win7 to test, but in XP (and earlier I think) the command line argument to open in explorer view, selecting C:\ is

 explorer ,/e,C:\

So you can make a shortcut with this parameter. Hasn't changed the default location, but provides the equivalent effect.
