: In Windows XP at least, the dialog box default folder comes from the
: registry key
:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU\*.
: There's a value there named MRUList that contains a list of lowercase
: letters. The first letter in the list is the one you're interested in. So
if
: the first letter is the letter a, then you want to look at the value
:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU\a.
: It contains a path to a file. The directory that the file is in should
: correspond to the directory in the browse box. So modifying the value of
: that key to the directory that you want should change the directory that
the
: file browser starts in.

The above contains a typo. Instead of
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU\a
, I should written
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\ComDlg32\OpenSaveMRU\*\a
