Hello there, I have 2 problems. One is that when I open the "My Computer" folder and I try to click on any of the drives, instead of openning to view it, I get the backup wizard. In this case I have righ-click on the drive and then go to click open (..and I see the "Backup" is first from the top in bold). Does anyone know how to make the "Open" click as the default??? My second thing is that if I open "My Computer" folder I see all the drives (colorful) icons except the zip drive. The icon is still there but it's just a generic one, like XP does not recognize it (the drive is working though). I tried to uninstall it and install back. Then the normal icon shows and after a while changes to the generic one. I think that means that something is either wrong with my mapped drives (not pointing to a right direction.....but drive is working?!) or I need to change something in the registry which I cannot find. Please help. Any info would be appreciated. Thank you for your time...

Try going into the folder options and file types tab then click on your drive file exstention and chnage the default to open.

Thank you for the reply, that worked. Somehow I deleted the open option.
