no prob. here are also my laptop specifications...

As the search option couldn't find ' C:\Windows\setupapi.log ', I'm attaching all that's similar...

Hello!

Sure, no problem, as long as I'm led through the process with your stady hand... 

I am refering to this CCleaner option with free trial all the time just because I usualy never do such stuff, always being super cautious and to be honest, affraid that something could happen just like it has just happened and as I'm not skilled in reparing computer systems and my knowledge of English is limited, I do try desperately to avoid such situations. Therefore I simply have to point my finger on the procedure with Ccleaner as I haven't done anything else that could impackt my long years' standard connected to opening the files.

Thanks for all of you for help once again, it was a terrible and annoying period with this opening files all in their own windows, drove me mad!

As there's no file with the exact name (see pic) I'm attaching the closest to it.

setupapi.app.log

[Pro version trial-Win Explorer file opening option can't be changed -Win7 HomeP.]

oh, sorry if I was nor clear - it works with opening IN THE SAME window now-that's what I ment!

My q.was what exactly was the cause this option to open files in the same window not to respond after I have chosen the 'Drivers update' option as an opportunity during free Pro Ccleaner tryal period

and

what have I exactly done to repair it with that 'Scannow' option you suggested (which offered me to see the log but I didn't imediately understood how to open/see it nor am I skilled to read it anyway) ??

Thanks!

P.S.

As you can see, I've also managed to find how to change the letters' size to the bigger ones in '...Cmd.exe' ... 

[Pro version trial-Win Explorer file opening option can't be changed -Win7 HomeP.]

I've tried the link you've suggested, made the first steps mentioned and it works!!!! (see pic attached)

THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! 

Now, just out of curiosity - what was wrong, and what have I exactly done to repair it??

(just in case I need something like that again in the future, although I'll try not to mess with the drivers again)

Much obliged.

admin

[Pro version trial-Win Explorer file opening option can't be changed -Win7 HomeP.]

Thanks.

But there isn't a box which says run with admin privileges (see pic)

I've tried to type CMD and then SFC/SCANNNOW anyway, but (although the very small typing) it said I have to be Admin...

Any other suggestions??

[Pro version trial-Win Explorer file opening option can't be changed -Win7 HomeP.]

Thanks but there's no such option ( pls see pic attached) or am I doing something wrong?

[Pro version trial-Win Explorer file opening option can't be changed -Win7 HomeP.]

Yes, I did but nothing  has changed. Thanks anyway.

[Pro version trial-Win Explorer file opening option can't be changed -Win7 HomeP.]

Thanks again, but -again- no change. All is the same as after the previous attempt.

Any other suggestions? Pls, help.

[Pro version trial-Win Explorer file opening option can't be changed -Win7 HomeP.]

Thank you for this simple explanation, I understood it all now. Unfortunately, it still doesn't work.

I have also tried (again) to change the settings to 'open in the new window' with Apply and then changed it back with Apply and OK buttons,  to open it IN THE SAME window. But nothing happens.

Pls, can anybody check what this could be  as it happened as I said, after I'd chosen the option to dl new drivers in free trial for Ccleanear Pro...?

thanks!

Thanks.

There is so much text to read but I managed to find one or two sentences that seems to give the solution but I don't quite understand it:

"the solution is to create the follwing .cmd file and execute it, after execution imnmediately reboot !"

"You must use regsvr32 to re-register the two proxy DLLs (actxprxy.dll and ieprxy.dll), thenreboot

You can use the upper batch file (.cmd file) to do this.

You must run this batch file with administrative privileges (right click on the file and choose Run as administrator)"

Pls, advise, how to I create that cmd file?

Maybe you could qoute here what exactly must I do (steps) please?

Thank you for your quick answer !

Last week I made the driver updates (Pro version free trial) and now the way of opening the Win Explorer (all folders) changed from my previous setting - now each folder opens in its OWN NEW window, which is driving me crazy because now I have many windows opened (as I usually have several sub folders ...).

Of course I have tried to change it in the settings but it ignores it completely and doesn't work?!

What I want is each folder to replace the old opened one.

I do with my mouse (but have checked the Ctrl button and it's not stuck...).

I work in Win7 Home Premium. Everything else works.

pls, advise and help asap. thanks in advance!
