When trying to adjust folder options, I could not find
the Control Panel Applet "Folder Options". I tried
running "control folders" from the Run command and
received a message that, "This operation has ben
cancelled due to restrictions in effect on this
computer". I know of no changes made. I am the computer
administrator here. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

See www.dougknox.com, Win XP Utilities, Windows XP Security Console. You
can control this restriction, and more, with this utility.

Hello Jack,
You can check the local group policy on your workstation to confirm that
this option is not configured.

1. Start\Run\gpedit.msc
2. User Configuration\Administrative Templates\Control Panel

Confirm whether either of the Show or Hide options is in use.
