In Yosemite, is there a way to open a folder that's in another folder, 
and keep the first folder open, without having to press the Command key?

Right click on it and choose "Open in a new window", which is the first
item in the popup menu.

Uncheck the "Open folders…" checkbox in Finder->Preferences->General.

That doesn't work.

Only Michelle's way works: left-clicking on the folder I want to open 
and then in the resulting pop-up window clicking on "Open in New 
Window".

Thanks, Tom Stiller and Michelle.

(Finally after three weeks I'm getting the numerous aggravating and 
time-consuming problems sorted out thet were caused by upgrading to 
Yosemite and Adobe Creative Cloud.)

You mean right-clicking.

Right clicking.  But I find command-clicking to be easier.
