Ack....now my MP3 folder

Well my MP3 folder has fallen under the spell of XP Pro's unfailingly polite
efforts to categorize folders and make them act in specific ways. Now,
instead of being able to sort my music files according to last modified date
(an invaluable tool which shows me the last several I've downloaded), it's
forced options such as Year, Track Number, Duration, etc. when I go to
arrange my icons. This is especially obnoxious and is along the same lines
as a limitation that has plagued my image folder as well. XP designated it
as, well, an image folder and refuses to open it up in anything but
thumbnail view - a dilemma that I've posted about several times here and
that in spite of Kelly, Doug and several others best efforts and fixes,
continues to plague my folder. And now my MP3 folder is ruined as well.

So, in short, is there ANY registry tweak or any folder modification at all
that is available to return my music and image folders to normal operation?
 
Right click the folder and choose properties.
Click the customize tab and set the folder the way you'd like.

If you don't have a customize tab, create a new folder, place your files in
it and do the above to it.
