Windows 7 - How do I change Windows 7 default action for drives?

| | How do I change Windows 7 default action for drives? Something changed the default option for disk drives on my Win 7 system. When I double click on any drive I get an error dialog saying that there is no program associated with it. When I right click I see a bogus "cmd" at the top of the action list. How do I get rid of that and restore the "Open" as default? The file association mechanism doesn't address drives, just files. Thanks |

| | Awesome! The "Drive" section did the trick! I have spent many hours studying the registry and comparing it with a machine without the problem to no avail. Should have come here in the first place.  Many Thanks, Don |
