I added a tool by the following method for testing purpose (this notes I
found on internet for Advance Windows XP Tips) :
*****
Printing a Directory :WindowsXP does not allow you to use previously
describe methods for printing the contents of a directory.To do this requires
the creation of a small batch file which is then added to your right-click
options.Batch File On the root of the C: drive, create a batch file called
print_directory.bat with the following lines:
@echo off
dir %1 /o:g > c:\directory.txt
start /w notepad /p c:\directory.txt
del c:\directory.txt
exit
Note: dir %1 /o:g will print with any directories listed first. You can add
whatever other switches you like
Adding to the Explorer Right Click
1. Start the Explorer
2. Go to Tools / Folder Options
3. On the File Types tab, click File Folder.
4. Click Advanced button and then click New.
5. In the Action box, type Print Directory (or whatever text you want to
appear).
6. In the Application used to perform action box, type
C:\print_directory.bat, and then click OK.
7. Click OK, click OK, and then click Close
****
I did this sucessfully. BUT now I want to remove it. As per the notes , by
going through the same process I can select and press remove button. But when
I select that the remove/Edit button is disabled.
THE OTHER PROBLEM is that one double click on any of the folder in opens the
search windows.
Could you all please advise me what to do to remove the this added Tool bar
AND how to set that when i double click it should explore instead of Find
window.
Best regards.
