hi,
I recently got a laptop for which I'm still trying to get used to the
little mouse.
My dilemma is this.. I was browsing through my start menu and I
accidentally dragged a copy of the Startup folder onto my desktop.
the one dragged onto the desktop is actually blank inside and didn't
carry any of the startup items ( so it seems like a copy)
now when I try to delete it off the desktop, Windows will not allowing
me that it is a system folder and that it can not delete it.
I've also tried renaming it and that does not work either.
Also when I go to the properties of this specific folder I do not see
anything that I can maybe uncheck that will no longer make it a system
folder.
If someone can help me I'd appreciate it.
I'm running windows 2000 Pro on this laptop.
I'm guessing there's some type of registry entry that can disable the
"system folder" attribute of this particular folder.
