There are several ways to display a file folder. One simply displays the
icons or the list of files. Another shows a split screen, with the icons or
file list on the right and the folder tree on the left.

Right now, my wife's computer shows all using the files only display. How
do I switch to the split screen format?

Click to expand...

Go to Control Panel and double click on Folder Options.
On the General page, make sure "Show common tasks in folders"
is selected.
Click OK.

Good luck

look on the toolbar - press the button "Folders"

Or menu View | Explorer Bar | Folders

That shows Common Tasks on the left. Surely the answer is in Windows
Explorer to select, View, Explorer Bar, Folders. You can switch views
easily by clicking on the Folders icon on the Toolbar if Standard
Buttons has been selected (View, Toolbar, Standard Buttons).

You're right, Gerry. I've got to learn to stop answering
question late at night. Thanks for pointing the OP in the right
direction.
