XP_NO Posted January 18, 2009 Share Posted January 18, 2009 Because I am not using them, I was wondering if it is possible to hide the favorites and libraries at the left pane in Windows Explorer. Does someone know if this is possible with probably some registersettings?I can't find it in the 'Organize' menu.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

XP_NO Posted January 18, 2009 Author Share Posted January 18, 2009 (edited) I tried that, but it is coming back.What I did:right click on libraries >> deleteright click on networks >> deleteafter about two seconds, everything back.... edit:It seems I can not delete 'Network' although the option is there.After deletion, everything is set back as it was.Without deleting 'Network' Libraries is staying away.Isn't there an option to get the old XP folder look back?

yken Posted January 19, 2009 Share Posted January 19, 2009 c:\users\yourname\links.in this folder there are shortcuts to your favorites bar. If you delete these files they are gone but only favorites name is still there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
geordie17 Posted January 20, 2009 Share Posted January 20, 2009 how about make a shortcut on your desktop of explorer.exe -> right click -> properties -> shortcut tab -> target line put this C:\Windows\explorer.exe /e,::{20d04fe0-3aea-1069-a2d8-08002b30309d}this will open explorer in Computer rather then libraries.
