Minor FolderBrowserDialog bug

As you may know, when you want an initial folder to be selected, you can do the following:
dlgFolderBrowser.RootFolder = Environment.SpecialFolder.MyComputer;

dlgFolderBrowser.SelectedPath = @"C:\Whatever Path you Want Here\";
if (dlgFolderBrowser.ShowDialog(this) == DialogResult.OK)

{

// etc.

}

However, if you omit the first line of code, it will not set the initial path correctly even if you have already set the RootFolder property in the designer.
