For sluggishness in navigating folders: Open Explorer, R-Clk My
Documents in the left pane, & select Properties. How many folders
does it contain? If it is around 100, try moving them out. Reboot. Is
your sluggishness gone? If not, put them back.


Which is so weird. I've got 3800 files and 200 subdirectories and about
0.5 GB in My Documents - so go figure! Anyway, apparently some people
have a problem with this.

Here is something else...

If disabling your virus checker's auto-"System" scan, using it's
Tray button, leaving the other types on, gives immediate & dramatic
relief, I have further info. This supposedly applies to Scan Engine
4.1.60.

Opening My Documents folder is immediate, however I must admit there
isn't very much in the My Documents folder. I have created an
alternate folder on my desktop (My Files) and use it because of some
potential slowdown if My Documents folder exceeds 100 files or
folders, not sure which.

Can somebody please explain me what processes exactly happen from when I
dbl-click on "My Documents" up to the time it appears?
(I want to see if I can make this process faste. I want "My documents"

to
appears just as soon as II d-click on it.)

Thanks
