If you mean the Visual Studio solution explorer then this isn't a TFS question at all, and you should remove those tags. But the answer to your question in VS2008/later is to right-click the solution and select "Open Folder in Windows Explorer."
If you mean opening the folder from the TFS Source Control window: You can't open the server folder with Explorer - your solution is stored in a SQL Database and the files don't exist in that form on the server. You have to get a local copy (using "Get Latest") and then open that copy in explorer.

You're right it's not TFS :) But I can't see your menu in VS 2005.

That menu was introduced in VS2008. You should be able to copy/paste the folder from the properties window, though... what's stopping you?

When the path is very lengthy that's not practical :)

Well, unfortunately it's still your only option :) Try double-clicking in the field in the properties window; that might auto-select the whole thing. Alternatively, press Home, then Shift-End to select the whole thing quickly with the keyboard.
