Windows Explorer to open without My Documents opne?

Tech Tip: Click here to run a free scan for Windows Errors and optimize PC performance



Everytime I use Windows Explorer it opens with My Documents
extended - thereby filling the screen with the folder I have within
My Documents.

To get to My Computer, and the drives themselves, I first have to
close the - sign on My Documents and then open the + sign on my
computer.

Is there a way to set it to open directly into my computer?

BTW, if this is a registry fix, I'm comfortable doing that.

TIA
