Stop Windows 7 Explorer from automatically expanding dossiers

[ForumBot]

Windows 7 Explorer can be opened in any folder from the ligne de commande. *But*, it automatically expands (à gauche nav panel) the Favorites, Desktop, and [Username] folders. This makes it hard to see what's what in the nav panel.

Comment puis-je tell Windows 7 Explorer to collapse those folders par défaut, until I open them? I only want the selected folder expanded.

There is a way to do this, au moins for the user's home directory:

- open explorer

- **right** cliquez sur the username (the user's expanded home-directory)

- do not choose any item of the context menu, but **left** cliquez sur the little arrow to collapse this directory

- exit explorer

- open explorer and enjoy ;)
