On the LabVIEW "Getting Started" window, in the "Open" section which shows recent projects and files, there is a Browse button at the bottom which broses all LabVIEW related files.
..
Missing is the "Browse Projects" button under the projects section. This is a little thing that will save many people a few seconds every time they open LabVIEW to look at their projects. I have a lot of projects and have to go back and forth to support the users of the software executables created by those projects.
..
Please add the "Browse Projects" button to the LabVIEW "Getting Started" window.

Thank You

I don't understand what you think is missing.
If you hit the Browse link on the Getting Started screen, you get a file dialog box. It includes all types of LabVIEW files include .lvproj project files.

Yes, I know that filter is there for browsing just the type of file you might like.
..
What I want is a top level one click way to turn on the project files only filter. Since that is my most frequent use, it probably is for many others since it is best to have the project open when you are working with VIs that are part of a project.
..
So, that I can add a filter manually is not what I am after.
..
I want to have LabVIEW2012 include the Browse Projects button since it makes a lot of sense. The savings in overall time is seconds per use, but very many hours across thousands of users, and LabVIEW needs to continue delighting it's customers...

And you should know that this belongs in the LabVIEW Idea Exchange.
