Unable to create new folder in windows explorer 98SE
I somehow have lost the option to click on filenewfolder. It isn't that
it is "grayed out"......it isn't even there any more. It has been several weeks since I have made a new folder, but I don't remember any new programs or any other changes to my P-III 650 512MB system with the exception of changing some Nvidia video drivers for my GeForce video card. Any ideas would be appreciated. Thanks, Larry Reynolds Houston, TX |

Gary, thanks a bunch. It worked like a charm. I was just thinking how
fortunate it was that I mentioned having screwed around with the Nvidia drivers lately. I am always amased how you guys can remember all of these little quirks. Regards, Larry "Gary S.

YW, Larry. I'm always amazed, too, but in my case, it's rote learning. =

There are some notorious = recent examples where my memory has failed from one hour to the next, = and in fact, I can't recall the specifics now. Has to do with suddenly = having no Desktop, recently updating IE, changing Win.ini (or is that = System.ini?) to make Progman.exe the file browser... At least I'm beginning to recognize those posts when I see them, and I = steer clear, let Brian or Glen handle them, bg. --=20 Gary S.
