    Shortest way to open Windows Explorer is to press "Windows+E".

    (the key B/w ctrl and Alt is called windows key)

    otherwise You can simply click on My computer icon or write the drive name in run box.

    Thats kind of a trick question.

    Windows Explorer is what IE uses as a GUI.

    In the url bar type 'C:'

    or use My Computer.

    These are both ways of getting into Windows Explorer.

    you can right click on the start menu bar and select Explore or hold down the Windows key (usually between Ctrl and Alt keys) and press the letter E

    right click on the START and choose explore

    or use the windows key (between Ctrl and Alt on the left side of the keyboard) with E (pressed together)
