Please help! Hello Sarah, Right-click the folder = Properties = Customize tab In the drop-down box near the top of the window, select from 'Use this folder type as a template' - 'Documents (of any type)'.

Thanks, but this didn't really make sense what you were meant to do with it,
but I've worked out another way around it anyway.

From your original post it sounded like your My Documents folder was acting
like a music folder. I.e. Instead of having File and Folder Tasks you had Music Tasks showing in the Tasks pane, the left hand pane in folders. Those links were to address that problem. -- Hope this helps. Let us know.

Yes, that was the problem, however the program you instructed me to download
didn't actu ally do anything. Thanks anyway though. "Wesley Vogel" wrote: From your original post it sounded like your My Documents folder was acting like a music folder. I.e.
