Solve : Explorer Right-Click Menu Default?

Answer» HELP!    When I right-click on a file in Explorer... the default has changed to Search rather than Open.  How do I change or reset it to Open?!?  Thanks   You mean when you right click, you no longer see "Open With..." on the popup menu?

What operating system are you using? Normally, when you double-click on a file it opens with the associated program.  Now when I double-click it opens Search.  When I right-click on a file the default menu option at the top is Search rather than Open.  I'm using XP Home EDITION.  ThanksGo to Start/Run and type in regedit...

Travel to the FOLLOWING key:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell

Double click on the default value and make sure it is set to none.

Re-boot and you should be good to GO...

As always when editing the registry always make a backup first.Great!  Thanks!  I'll GIVE it a shot and post the results.  Thanks again!   That did it!!!  I've been trying to figure this out for months.  Have no idea what caused it to change to begin with.  Thanks again.   You're more than Welcome...stop by anytime.
