Today, while i was examining my registry tweaks, i changed an registry value that made my
windows to open every folder in new window instead of the same window or its own
window.
Since i changed more than 10 registries i don't know what caused it. But finally i fixed the
problem by changing a simple option on the THIS PC properties, so right now i share it with you.
If you had faced a similar situation or whether your windows 10 PC starts to open every folder in the new window, then here is how you can fix it...
