We have Terminal Server 2003 and would like to change the default behaviour
when you right click on the Start menu of the taskbar and choose Explore. It
currently opens "Entire Network" and we prefer all our user to go to their G:
drive.
How can I change this behaviour? We run Group Policy and I can't find
anything in there to change.
Thanks

RE: Default Behaviour of Taskbar right-click Explore

This can be changed with this registry entry:

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

[HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Classes\Folder\shell\explore\ddeexec]
@="[ExploreFolder(\"G:\\\", G:\\, %S)]"
"NoActivateHandler"=""

Use the registry editor at your own risk, and backup your registry before
making changes.
