Ricardo,
In one of those systems where the "Update All" command is missing, see if
the following key is present:
HKEY_CLASSES_ROOT\Folder\shellex\ContextMenuHandlers\BriefcaseMenu
The (default) Value data should be set to
{85BBD920-42A0-1069-A2E4-08002B30309D}
If the key/data is missing, re-create them manually. To open Registry
editor, type REGEDIT.EXE in Start Run dialog.

The "Update All" option is available in the Briefcase menu and in Common
Tasks, just not in the right-click menu.
The briefcase folder is displayed with a briefcase icon (brown), not a
standard folder icon (yellow).

Hi Ricardo,
Two questions:
1. Is the "Update All" option in the "Briefcase" menu missing, as well?
2. Is the Briefcase folder displayed with a standard folder icon?

I've noticed that on some computers you can right-click on a briefcase and
select "Update All", which is a very handy option because otherwise you
have
to open the briefcase and go for Tools-Update All.
But in other computers this right-click option is not there, or
disappears.
How do I bring it back?
