sier2017 Fix a Problem Where Folders Open in New Window Every time Follow us on Winhelponline Help for Windows, Tips & Tech Reviews MENU Q Fix a Problem Where Folders Open in New Window Every time When you open Windows Explorer and double-click a folder, it may open a new explorer window rather than showing the folder contents in the existing window. This may happen although "Open each folder in the same window" setting is selected in Control Panel - Folder Options. Use these steps to fix the problem. Fix #1: Resetting the NavPane registry settings Close all folder windows. Start Regedit.exe and navigate to the following branch: FKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft \Windows \CurrentVersion\Explorer\Wodules\NavPane Right-click NavPane and choose Delete Exit the Registry Editor. Fix #2: Resetting the Default Double-click Action Open an Admin Command Prompt window. htp:iwwwwinhelpenine.comblogiixfolders-open-newwindow! wsier2017 Fix a Problem Where Folders Open in New Window Every time Type the following and press {ENTER} reg delete HKCR\Folder\shell /ve /f and reg add HKCR\Directory\shell /ve /d none /# That resets the default double-click action to “open”, and thereby fixes the problem. Fix #3: Registering IEProxy.DII This issue could also happen after installing certain versions of VaultClient software, and can be resolved by registering a DLL file. Use these steps, for Windows 7 and higher: Windows 32-bit regsvr32.exe "XProgramfiles%\Internet Explorer\ieproxy.d1l" Windows 64-bit regsvr32.exe "SProgranfiles%\Internet Explorer\ieproxy.d11” Xsystenroot%\SysWoW64\regsvr32.exe "AProgramfiles(x86)%\Internet Explorer\ieproxy.d11" You should see a similar message as below, in the output window: DilRegisterServer in ieproxy.dil succeeded. p:iwwwwinhelpenine.comblogiixfolders-open-newwindow!n017 Fix a Problem Where Folders Open in New Window Everytime If that doesn't help, download and run the folder and directory association fixes from the following links.
