Try this:

Do
$var = FileSelectFolder("Choose a folder.", "")
Until $var <> "Computer" And $var <> "Control Panel"
MsgBox(0,"",$var & " is a valid path.")

Or

Do
   $var = FileSelectFolder("Choose a folder.", "")
Until Not StringInStr($var,".")

Thaks Friend For Your Reply but some times I see that when we select "my computer" or "control panel" the OK button is automatically disabled whats that(In 7Z FM)?

Example: Point to zip File--right click on it--Extract File--Browse...(In 7Z FM)

LOOK LIKE THIS

Because those are not folders you can extact a zip file to. You can't create a folder in MyComputer, or in the Control Panel. The application is trying to help you by showing you where you can and cannot save the zip contents to.

I understand what you are looking for, but I don't think AutoIt can do exactly what you want. The closest you can come to that is to start at the user's root drive.

Local $var = FileSelectFolder("Choose a folder.", @HomeDrive, 7)

#include <GUIConstantsEx.au3>

#include <ButtonConstants.au3>



$Gui=GUICreate('FileSelectFolder')

$Button=GUICtrlCreateButton('-', 10, 10, 21, 21, $BS_ICON)

GUICtrlSetImage(-1, @SystemDir & 'shell32.dll', 4, 0)

GUISetState ()

While 1

    $msg = GUIGetMsg()

    Switch $msg

        Case $Button

            $Path = FileSelectFolder('', '', 3, @DesktopDir, $Gui)

            If @error Or Not StringInStr(FileGetAttrib($Path), "D") Then ContinueLoop

            MsgBox(4096, 'Folder', $Path)

        Case $GUI_EVENT_CLOSE

             Exit

    EndSwitch

WEnd
