C drive window pops up/open at startup. I checked startup file to see if I could change, but no help. It isn't hurting anything, just annoying. Any ideas? Thanks

Do you mean Windows Explorer opens at the C: folder ?

If yes, then try this...

Run REGEDIT and navigate to...

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer

Look in the right pane for an entry called DesktopProcess.

Delete it and reboot.

Bonne chance

Not quite sure what you are calling the "C: Drive window" (Explorer maybe?), nor what "Startup file" you are referring to. but take a look in Start|Programs|Startup. If there is anything in there with C: drive as part of the name, that is probably what is intiating your annoyance.

If no help, provide a little more detail about the problem.

If you have a folder named 'Program(s) on your desktop, either rename it or move it. It's a known win9x bug (quirk?).
