Default Filmstrip view

See if something here including the comments helps out:

I'll keep searching for a resolution although it doesn't look good at the
moment for your particular issue.

Yes, I have several folders with a few and some with a lot of pics that I
am unable to get the filmstrip option. But there are a few, mostly those
in a folder called "my pictures" that this option works fine.

Are there any photos in the folders that you do not have the View
Filmstrip option? If not you have the reason, the filmstrip option is
only available for folders with photos.

No, it was already set the way you recommended.
Any other ideas?

I have some windows that allow the filmstrip view and others that do
not.
I
have researched this and what I found was:

1. Select "View" - "Customize This Folder".

2. The folder properties multi-tabbed dialog box will appear.
Underneath
"Use this folder type as a template" choose "Pictures" or "Photo
Album" as
desired.

3. Click "OK" to close the dialog box.

The "View" - "Filmstrip" option should now be available.

I have followed the instructions, but I still don't get the option for
the
filmstrip.
Any suggestions? I am running windows xp home editions.

Thanks in advance,
hb

See if this helps:
Open either MyComputer or Explorer.
On the Menu bar click Tools Folder Options...
Under the General tab Tasks pane select "Show common tasks in
folders".
Click Apply Ok.

If the option View Filmstrip still is not available, complete the
steps
again to customize the folder.
