Blankhi people ;


Just a quick one.

When i open My Computer and then C: or one of my drives then it opens
each folder in its own window, but i have checked the box that says "open
each folder in the same window". i think it might be a "folder options fault
but i dont know the command paramerters to set them back to Default. can
someone paset them here for me ?


THANKS

Karl.

More Information:

This happens if one adds additional commands for Folders/Drives via Folder
Options, File Types dialog, and making modifications to the "File Folders".
To remove additonal commands that you added to "File Folders", you need to
edit the registry

HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell

"Find" is the only sub-key present by default (added by Windows XP).
Remaining ones can be deleted safely. But, be sure to backup the registry
before deleting the keys.

Then, execute this command from Start/Run:
(Tip from David Candy)

regsvr32 /i shell32.dll
