Cant open folders
Do you know how dangerous to post asking people about Deleting Folders
WITHOUT giving any indication of the names of the folders? Someone may just show/tell you without knowing that by deleting that folder, they basically destroyed your system. Pls, help us help you ... carefully. Last thing you want is some newbie telling you ... Go ahead and delete it. "Stephen" c wrote in message ... Hi there I'm running XP Home.
