XP Explorer Problem
 |
Got a wierd problem with my Windows explorer and its probably a simple fix but i'm not sure how to do it.When i open a window from a window that is already open it only opens in a separate window.Every time i open another window i have another window open and so on.I have tried to adjust the settings under tools/folder options/view/remember each folder view's settings but this dosen't change anything.Also i have checked and unchecked launch folders in a separate process but this dosen't change anything.I have a feeling that something in the registry is messed up.Any help would be great , i am tired of having windows open all over the place.Thanks in advance.

You are probably right about the Registry, but I don't know which keys to tweak.
By the way, spaces after periods would make your posts more readable....
