That is the usual reason for the loss of the ability to create a new
folder and unfortunately you will probably have lost far more than just that function. For example I suspect you will find that in Explorer you are now no longer able to select Thumbnail view. To remedy this and other problems caused by the nVidia installer (but not the drivers themselves) you need more than the patch you have downloaded from the Aumha site. If you wish to pursue this please post back. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP wrote: Yes as a matter of fact I have :-) |

Okay, no I can't view Thumbnails in My Pictures anymore
and I'm not sure what the sharing folders thiung means so I probably don't need it. Is that for networking? Can you explain please? -----Original Message----- Beau wrote: Ofcoarse I do Mike Of course what??? Can you select thumbnail view in Explorer?

Beau,
Sharing folders is when working with networked PCs. One can share both drives and specific folders with other users. What the nVidia install did is remove the ability to share a specific folder although the ability to share a drive will still be present. Since you don't network your PC you won't have noticed the loss. As you are using Microsoft's web interface to these newsgroups rather than a news reader you won't be able to "see" an attachment if I post it here so please e-mail me (address below) and I will send you by return a zip file containing a registry file (file with a REG extension). Extract the reg file from the zip, then right click and select Merge to add its contents to the registry. All this will do is add back any missing entries and won't delete or change anything else. Once you have merged the reg file you can throw both it and the zip file away. Regards, -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP Beau wrote: Okay, no I can't view Thumbnails in My Pictures anymore and I'm not sure what the sharing folders thiung means so I probably don't need it.
