Explorer's Folder View:
This particular problem is often the result of a damaged IE (usually IE6) install or update, usually caused by doing so with either Norton or McAfee AV running at the time. Yes I do realise you are talking about Windows Explorer rather than Internet Explorer but the two are linked. The first thing to try is to re-register the file shdocvw.dll. Do this by typing the following command in the Run box (Start | Run) REGSVR32 /i SHDOCVW.DLL and then click OK If that doesn't fix the problem then try repairing IE. Do this using Control Panel | Add/Remove Programs and highlight Microsoft Internet Explorer, click Add/Remove and then on the next screen select "Repair Internet Explorer" and then OK. If you don't have an entry for Microsoft Internet Explorer but rather it reads something like Internet Explorer Q?????? don't worry. This is because you have installed a cumulative update for Internet Explorer. You will need to uninstall the update, then go back into Add/Remove Programs, look again for Microsoft Internet Explorer, repair it and then reinstall the latest cumulative update. If this doesn't work or you have no entry for Internet Explorer in Add/Remove Programs please post back and someone will hopefully post further details on how to repair Explorer. -- Mike Maltby MS-MVP shmooggee wrote: When I open anything and i click on folders there is no list in the folders its just grey.
