Why does this happen and what does Open Folder Fix
do?
There are a variety of reasons why you may have lost the ability to
open folders. Sometimes a virus
or malware may have
infected your computer and damaged your registry. Another possibility
is that at some point you tried to change the icon for "File
Folder", via the Folder Options menu item.
Once the folder (also known as directory) shell association in
the registry has been corrupted, you may notice
that the “Open” menu item is no longer the first one listed on
the
context menu anymore when you right click a file:

It can be very difficult to tweak the registry settings to fix
this problem on your own, even for an advanced PC user.
