Using "How to add the Print Directory feature for folders in Windows XP"
Article ID 321379, when editing the registry, instructions tell me to locate
Default value under the following key. HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Directory\shell
I assume this is the word "Default" which appears on the right when you
click on the word "shell" on the left.
The instruction go on to say click "Modify" under the "Edit" menu, then
enter the word "none" (no brackets) in the "File data" box. However, the
box that appears is called "Value data" box. Are they the same?
Thanks in advance for taking a look at this.
 
Yes, should have been 'Value data'

First - I am assuming you have some reason to do that section?
"... After you follow the steps in the previous sections, Search Companion
may start when you double-click a folder instead of the folder being
opened. Or, if you have associated other actions with file folders, those
actions may be performed instead ..."

In other words - if that describes your situation, you utilize that
section. If that doesn't describe you - you don't need to do that section.
Click to expand...

Yes, that describes me- Search Companion opens.
See the attached picture... (yeah - a small binary - I cannot believe I
am doing it either..)
Click to expand...
That is the part I am referring to. However, to the right of the "DEFAULT"
shown in your binary, mine has the following: REG_SZ
 
Yes a typo and I submitted it for correction.
