folders~any one HELP///willie
 
Hi Willie,
Can you e-mail me a screenshot of the folder in question ? To take a
screenshot, open up the folder etc. amd press ALT+PRNT SCRN (this button is
normally located on the upper rows of your keyboard. Next open up paint and
click on edit>paste. Then save the file as a jpg format and email it as an
attachment.

Did you have a custom background in the folder on 98? If so, look for a file named 'desktop.ini' in
the folder (it will probably have BOTH hidden & system attributes set, so set explorer to both 'show
hidden files' and NOT 'hide protected OS files). Delete or rename the desktop.ini file & you should
be fine.
