Default XP: Open folders get closed on reboot?


Open folders get closed on reboot?

It used to be in XP that open files "stayed open"
after a reboot. That was cool, a neat way and reminder
to continue working where I was before booting.

After installing a program, (WinAce archiver,) that
went away, and it acts like Win3/95/98 did.

Anybody know a way to get that feature back?
Thanks!

PURE Republicanism?? It's now clear.
Six years of PURE Republicanism - BOTH houses
AND the Prez. Pure as it gets.
So?
Are you better off now than seven years ago?
Are you proud with what they have done to
America and her reputation? ...Your reputation?
....all that sleaze, lies and bribery?
How about all the killing...the torture? Proud?

If actions speak louder than rhetoric, then
name ONE good thing about Republicanism.
Just one.

Just one *real* thing.

Can't do it?
So? Your Republicanism more like a bad habit then?
Might be time to consider Change.

Probably the following option is what you want:

In Explorer
- Tools/Folder Options/View/Restore previous folder windows at logon


Many thanks!! I thought for sure that would
fix it. But alas, it was already checked.
I hit Apply and reboot, no help.


I don't ever turn this option on myself,


Hard to get used to, but superneat!

and I've never used WinAce so I
don't know of any connection with that, but it may do something to stop
this even if you do set the option on.


Ya. Thanks. I guess I'll uninstall it and pray.
I've been noticing some sluggishness and other
weirdness too, since install.

If no help, I'll try a system restore (resore?) for
the first time ever. Any tips or warnings on that?

Yeah, take your political ramblings to some other group.


You can't get over my sig!?

Laff! Kinda oversensitive aintcha?

Don't feel bad. The neocons did not support
Duhbya in the 2000 primaries. He's just a
newbie convert.

...they supported John McCain.

no more so than I would be toward Nazis, clan members and evangelicals.
Fortunately my filters can be adjusted.

pounded out on the keyboard:

It's terrible, isn't it. And, to make things worse, my last post with
the proper signature format contained two signatures. Boy, did I blow
it or what? ROFL
