Changing What Clicking On A Folder Does

Ok when I first got my computer it had an image viewing program set to open folders when double clicked but it expired and now it does search when you double click,how can you change this?

 

I don't understand what your problem is... slow down and explain it clearly...

 

Right click> Open With> Select your program, check the "Always use this program"> Press OK.

 

^^^ good call, m8

 

I don't get an "open with" on folders....Ok when I first got the computer it automaticly opened folders with a picture viewing program,it expired and I uninstalled it,now if you double click on a folder it automaticly does search instead of open and it gets tedious having to right click and click open everytime.How can I set it so that it defaultly opens folders with "open"

 

I thought you meant files. I don't know, what was the name of the program?

 

I removed the program it was like jasc paint shop pro but now it opens folders with search

 

Folders can only be open with Windows Explorer.(And some third party browsers) Are you sure its just "folders"

 

Search is the default setting for folders not open i have to right click and find open

 

*sigh* ... right-click/properties/change... then set it to windows picture and fax viewer. - if you need too access pictures.. but erm... folders? do what everyone else does when they mess up reboot your system... remember to back up all your crap first.

 

I am having this trouble too. when i open a folder the search box comes up. i dont know how to change it.
