XP File System - Vista

[Guest]

Hi Everyone, I just got a new Vista machine and you can't set up file and
folder views like XP. I want to see the native view of my files, with
drives, hierarchies, yellow folders and all, you know like the old Window
3.1. Does someone make a program I can install to mangage my files without
using the Vista views? This really sucks.

Select one of these for your problem

All Vista newsgroups:
microsoft.public.windows.vista.administration_accounts_password
microsoft.public.windows.vista.file_management
microsoft.public.windows.vista.games
microsoft.public.windows.vista.general

Thanks. Where do I select these? Did I explain my situation right? Am I
just screwed and should have stayed with XP?

You can't, the old Win 3.1 File Manager (winfile.exe) isn't in Vista (or XP
for that matter).
You need to address your Vista queries in a Vista newsgroup.

You search within that archaic web interface into which you have made your
post.
From a personal perspective, I dont want Vista as I consider it to still be
a form of betaware.
And I dont use the discussion groups either - so I would not know where to
find the Vista groups.

Happy searching
