d4v3 Posted March 21, 2004 Posted March 21, 2004 Ok.. Im no newb to computers and all but i have a pretty newby question.I just installed XP home and whenever i doubleclick on a folder, it opens up a search.. Ive looked through folder options 20 times and just cant find it. Can someone help me?
likuidkewl Posted March 21, 2004 Posted March 21, 2004 What kind of search? Is it saying it is looking for the folder or is it bringing up a search assistant in the left pane?
d4v3 Posted March 21, 2004 Author Posted March 21, 2004 Yeah. It brings up a search thing in the left pane.
Aaron Posted March 21, 2004 Posted March 21, 2004 Close the Search panel, then go to Folder Options > View and click on Apply to All Folders.See if that fixes it.
XtremeMaC Posted March 21, 2004 Posted March 21, 2004 maybe some function of the mouse maybe spywareI had a similar problem but it might be a tweak i didn't really mean to apply.when I open a folder the folders are shown in the left pane. i didn't really play with it (bc i had that problem 2 days ago and I newly formatted)
d4v3 Posted March 21, 2004 Author Posted March 21, 2004 eh.. I might try reformatting but that is last option
