Settings for Windows Explorer question

Whenever I open Windows Explorer to view all files it always opens to user
files/documents/windows. The file location adress is
C:\Windows\explorer.exe /e
This is the same address thats in my windows xp program. I don't have a
problem when I open it in xp. Why doesn't it open the same in Vista? Each
time I open it I have to scroll around to view all of the folders on the C:
drive. It's time consuming and needlessly annoying in my opinion. Can
someone tell me how to correct it so that when I open Windows Explorer it
opens the C: and shows all of the available folders???
Thanks
