Hi Verify first whether your system is affected by "TROJAN" or any other viruses
If "YES" Remove the smae by using "ANTIVIRUS" S/W (Preferably AVG !!)
Go to C:\Windows (O.K how to open C or C:\Windows is your questions ..Correct !! MAy be try to right click and use open with option..and select C:\Windows\Explorer.exe OR system may open show openwith window..click on browse and select c:\windows\explorer.exe)
Open REGEDIT file
Find "MOUNTPOINTS2" using Ctrl + F
Delete the same
Repeat the process unless all the "MOUNTPOINTS2" are deleted
Now your system will be OK. (reveied these inputs from thsi forum only)=Thanks to the member

drives and folders not open by double click
Hi
I had the same probem.Some of the solutions are already mentioned on this forum before.
Open REGEDIT file
Find "MOUNTPOINTS2" using Ctrl + F
Delete the same
Repeat the process unless all the "MOUNTPOINTS2" are deleted
Restart you pc and see if it still works - if nottry this out.
1.Downlod this simple freeware " tweak ui" from:
http://www.download.com/Tweak-UI/3000-2072_4-10002117.html
2.Install it.
3.Open the software locate for"My Computer>Drives>U'l see drives - listing from a to z
4.Uncheck all the drives which u dont ve on ur pc.
5.Then clickon "Autoplay > Drives > Uncheck all unwanted drives from the list.
Then goto to"regedit" and continue with the first step mentioned above.
This will be a permanent fix-it would not re-create the "mountpoints2" file when you restart ur pc.
Regards.

Good day guys ,
it really is annoying isnt it ! , so here is the series of solution
> run a trojan,virus,malware remover , preferable all in one pack prg. make sure system is clean
>as described follow the regedit steps and delete all MOUNTPOINTS2 till its clean ,
> here is the trick , if u all cleared it up , cos of an autorun file on every drive , (C,D,E) if u reboot now it will come back as u restart ! DONT REBOOT NOW , we'r not done yet
>if u r one of the guys having problems running the cmd prompt of ''type attrib -h -r -s autorun.inf '' , DO THIS
> since u can access ur drives now , go to ontrol pannel , pull up Folder Options, select SHOW hidden files , down below , UNCHECK (hide protected sys. files ) , apply and lick ok
>go back to explorer , in C> drive now u will see a autorun.inf , DELETE it , do this for all drives u have , once u finish , uncheck the settings we changed in folder options (hide sys.files , show hidden) close explorer , restart
pc ,
:) now u will be able to use explorer , but dont forget its becose of a trojan , so prob. somewhere in the sys. u may still have a virus ...
Hope that works for u folks !

Thank you so much! I followed ur steps, and the doubleclicking works fine. Although, I didn't find the autorun.inf, and the d: partition disk thing didn't work for me. It was interesting to see that the value in the Registry was FIND. That is what I've been seeing when I tried repairing using FOLDER OPTIONS.
Thanks again!
Thanks again!
Thanks
