Describe the bug

The "FixFolderScroll" setting fixed the annoying issue where double clicking a folder on the left treeview in Windows Explorer caused a scroll of the selected item to the bottom making the subfolders not visible. You need to scroll up in order to access the subfolders. This issue was also present in Windows 8 and is still present in Windows 10. Don't know about Windows 11. However, the "FixFolderScroll" option is only enabled for Windows 7. Would it be possible to enable it at least for up to Windows 10?

I tested it by setting "DWORD_PTR settings=1;" in ExplorerBHO.cpp and it worked fine in Windows 8/8.1 and Windows 10.
