Windows 11 23H2
When I open file explorer from the taskbar, I have configured file Explorer so that Explorer’s right pane opens to the folder structure I want: C:\GandD
However, the left pane only shows “OS (C)
”
I want the left pane to automatically by default expand “C” so that the folder structure under “C” is <i>always </i>displayed. I do have “Expand to current folder” checked but this does not make any difference.
How do I accomplish this?
You piqued my curiosity. I tried every command line combination I could find, and couldn’t get the results you want. Good luck. Maybe someone else will come through.
Have you tried this?
%windir%\explorer.exe /n, C:\GandD
In Windows 10, that expands the C: drive in the left pane like this.
On my Windows 10 PC, %windir%\explorer.exe /n, C:\Games ⇒
I realize explorer.exe in Windows 11 is different so the /n option may no longer exist.

While I was researching explorer switches, that’s exactly what I read in several places. I mean, about the “/n” switch not working in Win 11.
