Link to start Explorer

Help!
I am a new user of this program and I need to create a link on an auto run CD that is to Windows Explorer in ANY version of the OS.
 
I know that %windir%\Explorer.exe /e SHOULD work, but I am unable to get it to save correctly.  I may even be doing on the wrong tab.
 
Any assistance is helpful.  I have 500 copies of this CD to run by the end of next week.
 
Thanks!

Just select a text block, then use
Insert >Link
then click the 3rd tab,
then press the Add+ button
then replace the automatically inserted text with:
 
run:\thefolderpath\
 
this will launch MS Windows Explorer for the folder
 
d:\thefolderpath\
 
(or f:\thefolderpath\ or whatever the CD drive is called)
 
 
If you want to show a folder on c: , e.g. c:\windows , use
 
run:c:\windows\
