Folders

[Crispy]

I have set up a new folder on my desktop and put in some shortcuts. However,
when I open the folder, it goes straight to "search" function, rather than
showing me the program icons!

Anyone with any views how I can get it to open with the program icons
immediately visible?

Thanks in advance

Hi,

This is a known problem, and MVP Doug Knox has a fix for it, see:
