Favorite folder won't open

[Guest]

When I add a web site to my, "Favorites", folder while using IE, some folders
open, showing what I've placed there and some folders do not open. When I
right-click on the folder, it shows the sites are there, but the folder
itself won't open. Any suggestions? Thanks.

This question is probably better asked in the IE newsgroup which is manned
by IE experts.

Ron,

I can't get a reply from the 'I.E.' newsgroup, do you or anyone else have
any suggestions? Thanks again.

Since no one answered, I suspect that the question has not been raised
previously. When that occurs, an answer is often hard to come by :-(

I tried to replicate what you say is happening and I cannot. What version
of IE are you using? If IE6, could you list step by step what you are doing
so I can try to set up the problem here?

Thank you Ron, I appreciate your help. I am using IE6. Prior to my
reformatting my computer, the 'Favorite' windows worked fine. Now, I go to
Favorites, open Organize and click on 'Create Folder' and type in a name for
the folder. I then click, Okay. I open 'Organize' again, click on one of my
Favorites and click on 'move to folder', which it does. I then add the rest
of my favorite web sites and close.

Later, when I click on the Favorites Folder, some will open and others
won't. On the folders that do not open, if I right-click on the folder, I
can see the sites are there, but the folder will not open. I delete the
folder and relocate my favorite web sites.

I can live with this, but it's kind of a pain, having to find and save my
web sites all over. I have thought of downloading IE7, but have heard there
are problems with the new version. Again, I appreciate your time and concern
on this.

Grant,

I cannot replicate it here so I guess I can't help. I have download IE7
three times (twice for the same computer) and it generated error messages
when I tried to use it. I have it hidden in updates.
