To prevent this behavior:
1. Copy / Paste the following into a NoWE.reg file:
REGEDIT4 \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Folder\shell\open\] "BrowserFlags"=dword:00000010 "ExplorerFlags"=dword:00000012 \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Folder\shell\open\command\] @=hex(2):00,00 \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Folder\shell\open\ddeexec\] @="\[ViewFolder(\"%l\", %I, %S)\]" "NoActivateHandler"="" \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Folder\shell\open\ddeexec\application\] @="" \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Folder\shell\open\ddeexec\ifexec\] @="\[\]" \[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Folder\shell\open\ddeexec\topic\] @="AppProperties"2. Merge the NoWE.reg file with each of your users registries.
