Looks like you've closed the Explorer bar in Windows Explorer to restore the

Bar Folder View Goto To Windows Explorer and click on View > Explorer Bar >
Click Folders and your folder view will be restored on the left.

I just got a new computer with XP Pro. I have worked a bunch in XP Home.
There is one silly, annoying problem I am having with Windows Explorer.
When I open it, I want the classic view of the directory tree on the
left and the files and folder on the left. All of my XP Home machines
are set up this way.
I have tried everything I can think of with this new machine, but it
continues to open with the right side of the pane extending clear across
the window. In other words, instead of listing Folders on the left pane,
with "Name" "Location" "Size" "Date Created", etc., on the right, it is
as if the left pane does not exist. The extreme left side of the
Explorer window starts with "Name" and continues with "Location" "Size"
"Date Created", etc.
If I hit the "Folders" button, then I get the look I want, but I have
not been able to make that the default.
I have gone into Tools/Folder Options/View, locked the tool bars,
unlocked the tool bars, etc. I still cannot get it to open the way I
want.
Any suggestions appreciated.
