Hi Guys,
I m Using WIN-XP SP1,P-4

When i m Trying To Open any Drive In My Computer IT Will Open In
ACDSEE.

I Have Made a Mistake Due to Which This Occur.

The Mistake Was Like This.
GoTo MyComputer-->Tools-->FolderOptions
goto File Types Tab
Select "Drive"
Press "Advance" Button
Here I have Made Some Changes.
Due to which The Problem Occur.

Now If I have To Open Any Drive ,Have to Right Click then Select "Open"
then it will Open.

within Any Drive There is no Problem.

Thanx In Advance.

Not sure if this works, but just give it a try:

As you said, open
My Computer->Tools->Folder Options

Navigate to File Types tab & select Drive in the registered file types window (its icon will be like a normal drive) and click on Advanced.

Make sure that there is no entry such as ACDSEE or anyother which doesnt seem normal regarding hard-drives.

If there are, then just select them & click on Remove..

Savvy :!:

But the Remove Button Remains Disable.
that's why yaar.

And the ACDSEE entry is there.
i want to know the STRING of "OPEN" which i can set through Browse.
So PLzzz

One More Thing
Try To Edit Any Previously Stored Value.

Throgh Which u Get the String of Action OF That Perticular One.

Try This.

Open regedit and goto:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers

And delete any key under this key, which relates to "ACDSee".
Also goto:

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Drive\shell

And delete all keys under "Shell" key, if exist!
I think it should solve the problem...

Go for SP2 boy
