After repairing Windows XP, the icon to get to the Windows Explorer arborescence doesn't show anymore. How do I get it back?

I'm looking for the expanded list, not the "my computer" view

To get the Windows Explorer icon back to what it was:

Right-Click -> Properties -> Change Icon -> Browse to C:\Windows -? Open Explorer -> Select the icon -> Ok then Apply

Hope that this helps.

Nope, that's it.

If you right click on "My Computer", "Explore", you get a different view as if you would juck click "My Computer".

That's the fonction I'm looking for.

It ususally is in "Start", "Program", "Accessories" and it's called "Windows Explorer" and the icon is the little folder thingny. Unfortunetly, I don't have it anymore.

Make a new shortcut on the desktop and in the box type explorer, then click next. Rename it and click finish. Hope that this helps
