Default Restore Previous Folder Windows at logon

Is there a way to disable "Restore Previous Folder Windows at logon" in
Windows 98?

I looked in Explorer, Tools, Folder Options, under View tab, but I don't see
a way to turn it off.

Could I turn it off in the registry?

Questioned often:

2.2.1.7.1 GlobalFolderOptions element
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/libr...(PROT.13).aspx

Generally:
Using a registry editor, locate the following key:
HKCU\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Exp lorer\Advanced
Locate or if necessary Create a REG_DWORD value called PersistBrowsers
in the right hand pane.
Modify to 1 to turn on, 0 {zero} to turn off.
Close editor, restart computer.
Yes? Save/backup registry.

XP:

Windows7 - Depends upon version/release:

Post back with the results John, or if you have further questions. Hope
this helps.
