How do I get Explorer2 Lite to always open up to a particular folder?

specify the folder(s) you want on the command line you use to start x2.
For details see the Help | Quick start guide
under "Optional command line arguments"

Thanks.

Ordinarily I'd figure this out myself, but after having spent several hours troubleshooting my having turned off my wireless switch, I'm afraid I'll blow up my computer.

I know how to edit the target. What I have for E2 is this:

"C:\Program Files\zabkat\xplorer2\xplorer2_64.exe" /M

Now, to get E2 to always (at least, at this shortcut) to open up to my D partition..... how do I change this?
I'm running Win7 64 bit, on the C partition.

BTW--I'm know I started this in the lite forum, but I'm now using the pro 2.x version, and am seriously considering buying the product after day 21 (or whenever it expires).

Just so you know, if there are any differences that would pertain to this thread.

Never mind. Got it. I eliminated the /M that was at the end of the string, and inserted D:\. Now it opens up just where I want it, regardless of what folders I have been browsing previuosly.

Thanks for the link.
