Opening folders in Explorer woes..

[hendy]

Hi everyone, I was messing around with stuff on my computer, like icons and stuff when this problem happened..

Whenever I would click a folder, say for example, "Documents and Settings", it would launch a search on it in a new explorer window instead, I've fixed that problem by going to Control Panel>Folder Options, then the "File Types" tab, then clicking on the "file folder" part. I saw there that it had "search" as the default command, so I made a "open" command and made the action as "C:\windows\explorer.exe".

Now this kind of solved the problem as it open my folders on my double clicks, but now it does not open it within the window I was in, but rather opening a new window. Does anyone know how to fix this problem? I've tried system restore and it does not work.
