Default open folder trouble

O.K. I'am idiot, I tried to add a print directory to XP. Now when I right
click on any folder the highlited option is Print Directory, not Open. I now
go to Control Panel.... Folder Options ... File Type .... Highlite File
Folde and hit the Advance button there is no Open instruction command there.
How do I get the OPEN back in the folder command box?

Try doing a system restore to the day before you added the Print Directory.

Any changes can be turned back with System Restore


Start -> Programs -> Accessories -> Sysytem Tools -> System Restore

Restore your system to a state before this started,for example a day or more
before.

More info about System Restore can be found in Windows XP Help and Support
Center
Start-Help and Support

I don't know you but I believe you are not an idiot.

If you have any other questions ,do not hesitate to contact the community
