I solved my question above with:

ultraNavigationBar1.NavigateTo("C:\\CMT", true);

My question now is how do I prevent the user from going to the parent of the root I navigate to. IE... I want to just let them navigate within a certain root folder or it's sub folders.

Also please take a look at the attached sample where I`m using UltraNavigationBar.

Let me know if you have any further questions.

My issue is not in the navigation bar but in the tvwFolders UltraTree in the "Infragistics FileExplorer CS.zip" sample. I have the navigation bar in this defaulting but since the UltaTree logic starts with Desktop and My Computer I need the code to change this to start with something like "C:\Downloads".

I`m not sure that I understand what is your issue. At the begining we are talking about UltraNavigationBar and how to set initial path. I do not understand what is your issue with UltraTree and what exactly doesn`t work in the "Infragistics FileExplorer CS.zip" sample.

Let me know if you have any questions.

PLEASE, I beg you. YOUR SAMPLE Infragistics FileExplorer CS.zip" has this section of code in it. How do I set it to NOT USE "DESKTOP" or "MYCOMPUTER" but rather "C:\DOWNLOADS". PLEASE, PLEASE, PLEASE look at YOUR SAMPLE. This uses a a Navigation bar but the code below in YOUR SAMPLE also displays a beautiful tree to the left that in NOT A NAVIGATIONBAR. HELP, HELP, HELP
