Hi, When I installed a software on my computer yesterday there where several programs installed and after that Windows wa restarted. Probably there was a window open on shut-down so now it opens again every time Windows starts. It is Windows explorer that opens and the defauöt folder is c:\Program .
I've tried to restart in Windows Safe mode but it did'nt help. I have also looked in the Autostart folder but there is no such program that open the Windows explorer.

There must be a command somewhere on my computer that says " open Windows explorer and view the Program folder". Does anyone know where this "startup" is saved?

Please come with suggestions.


Regards

Gunde
