Hi
I am still having trouble with my folders. The folder names are all correct
when viewed in explorer etc but when I open a folder the name of the folder
in the blue bar at the top of the dialogue box only displays the first letter
of the folder. This is the same for major folders like My Documents, as well
as all folders within it, also for Control panel the same thing is happening
- when I open it there is only a "C" in the blue bar. For webpages and other
applications it's fine though.
It's quite annoying and I wondered what I've done to the computer for it to
display it like this. I've tried all the folder options but it is still
there. Can anyone help?
(I'm using windows XP home edition with all the relevant service packs and
updates).
thanks

Using Windows Explorer (not IE), click Tools>Folder Options>View tab.
Make sure the first 5 items are checked under Advanced Settings>
click Apply>OK out.
 
Hi
I tried that - still got the same problem.
Is there anything else that might be causing it?
thanks
