Explore the Explorer

If you run Windows Explorer as-is, it will display all the resources such as disk drives, network drives, printers, etc., it can find on your computer. On some computers running the Windows Explorer can be a slow process if you have many resources, specially if you have many networked and removable resources. On the other hand, you might prefer a simple view of just the resources you're interested in. Well, here's how to accomplish just that:

 

• Select "Run" from the "Start Menu"
• Type "Explorer /e, /root, c:\" (for example) and press ENTER

Above steps will run Windows Explorer with just C:\ drive listed. If you want to explore a particular directory only (D:\WORK for example), using the Explorer's tree view, run:

Explorer /e, /root, "d:\work"
