FLAWED Windows Explorer
Did a fresh re-install of Win98SE. Installed necessary
drivers, utilities, internet applications at the same time while downloading security updates from WindowsUpdate. For those apps that need a reboot right after instalation, I complied. Finally when I clicked on Windows Explorer, I could not use the 'detail' options on viewing files on the right side. Directories can only be seen on the left side. Files on the right are not shown. The view option on Win98 Windows Explorer has 4 option views. They are [tiles, icons, list and 'details'] Someone pls help me. I installed everything only to find out that Windows Explorer is malfunctioning on its detailed option view. Hard to navigate through files and directories. |

With Explorer open, in Details view, click into the right-hand pane, then
hold down let Ctrl key and press + (plus) key on numeric pad. Problem is, your columns are completely closed (or the first one is extremely wide). Using Ctrl+(Plus) resets columns to default widths. (This works in almost all standard Windows apps where columns are involved.) -- Gary S. Terhune MS MVP for Win9x "Sergei" wrote in message ... Did a fresh re-install of Win98SE.
