Windows Explorer is a file manager application that is included with releases of the Microsoft Windows operating system from Windows 95 onwards.
- It provides a graphical user interface for accessing the file systems.
- It is also the component of the operating system that presents many user interface items on the monitor such as the taskbar and desktop.
the windows Explorer Window is has two separate areas called "panes" as in panes of glass. The left pane shows the contents of your hard drive in a "hierarchical"structure.
- Hierarchical just means that you have a topmost folder which expands into other folders, and then those folders can expand to show more folders, and so on
- If a folder has a plus sign "+" next to it, it means that you can left-click on the plus sign to expand that folder further.
- The right pane of Windows Explorer simply displays the contents of any folder that you click on the left pane.
- In this way you can easily view all of the folders and files on your computer. It also makes moving them around easier as well.

If there is a + beside the folder, clicking on it will show the subfolders stored in that folder.

How do you make vista open the windows explorer in explore mode by default?
"Explore Mode" means that Windows Explorer opens with the Navigation Pane (Folder Tree) visible on the left side of the window. When you right click an item, on the context menu, you should see 2 items for opening Windows Explorer "Explore" and "Open". If you click "Open" Windows Explorer opens without the Navigation Pane showing. If the Explore item does not open Windows Explorer with the Navigation Pane showing, in Vista, you can open Windows Explorer and select Organize/Layout and click the "Navigation Pane" item in the menu. This setting should stick the next time you open a menu and click the Explore item. If this doesn't stick, you can check the registry setting at the following location: [HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shell] Right click the (Default) value in the right side pane and select Modify. In the Value Data box, make sure that it shows "explore" there.

Name 2 ways to get into windows explorer?
If your keyboard has a "Windows Key", then Windows+E brings up Windows Explorer.Right click on My Computer, and click on Explore.Click on Start, then Run, and enter in a folder name, like "C:", and click OK - that will open up Windows Explorer (without the left hand navigation pane) on that folder.Click on Start, then Run, and enter in "explorer /e,c:\folder" where "c:\folder" is replaced with the folder you want to view. This is roughly the same as the previous point, except that the left hand navigation pane is visible.Thanks,Sahil Agarwal..
