Hi, previously I follow method at #11 to set the FileExplorer to default explorer. However, I want to change it back. How am I able to do that?

You need to replace the changed values to "%SystemRoot%\explorer.exe" Open registry, and follow the path being referenced in each line, when you get to "command" open the folder and replace this application's path with what I've given (Though do check the path I've given you works) keep the %1 or %* Do this for both Drive & Directory

Also next time do a backup before tweaking registry
