1) How do I invoke side-by-side Win Explorer views?
Whenever I try to start a second instance by double clicking the icon, the system detects that Explorer is already open and doesn't give me a second window. Cntrl drag doesn't copy it either.

2) Can I put a toolbar in the Win Explorer window somehow?
I'm used to having my X (Delete) icon up at the top of the window. If not, how do I 'Apply (a view) to All Folders'?

3) Can I get Win Explorer to open without Favorites, Libraries and all that?
How do I get just collapsed drives when I open it?

4) Screen res is set to 'Smallest' but Desktop icons are huge! Can I make them small somehow?
