Build 200401271900-ismp5 How to reproduce: 1) Open "Open" dialog using "Browse" button on panel "J2SDK Selection" or "Directory Selection" 2) "Open" dialog appears 3) Press "Home" icon 4) ERROR: Desktop openes. IMHO User home directory should be opened. Notice: I don't like this opening of home directory on windows, but anyway it's the standard behavior :-(.
This is default behavior of JFileChooser on Windows. If you do not like it you should file issue against Swing. We will not implement our own file chooser just because of this.
