My root and other maps show as photomaps

Hello,

Vista seems to treat photo and image maps different: in stead of filename,
date, size, etc. there are columns: Shot at (date), Classification (stars),
etc. and othere Exif columns to choose of.
But these columns also show up in some of my normal file maps, even the root
C:\ !
This is very clumsy, for instance when I want to sort on filedate or
extension.

I looked everywhere tro change the settings for a map, but I could not find
a way to let Vista know to treat the map as file map, not photo map.

Suggestion:

Start - System Panel - Folder Options (determine what needs to be
changed there)

You can also manipulate folder styles by using Windows Explorer options
menu.

Thanks for your answer.

But in all these places is no way to choose whether a map is treated as a
photomap or a filemap.

Right-click the folder from an explorer window, choose properties, then the
customize tab.
