Guest JohnB Posted June 26, 2008 Posted June 26, 2008 This has me mystified.... Windows Server 2003 R2 When I am browsing folders in Windows Explorer, folder names in the left pane are underlined. I don't want them underlined. I want to be able to select multiple folders using the CTRL or Shift key, without expanding the folder and displaying the sub-folders. I thought the fix would be under Tools>Folder Options>Click Items as Follows. But that has nothing to do with it. How do I turn off that feature? TIA

But that has nothing to do with it. I've never seen a version of Windows where you can select multiple folders in the left Explorer pane. Just the right one. But then, I don't know about Vista and there's been a little too much alcohol between now and 1992 to remember how 3.1 worked. -- Jordon

Guest JohnB Posted June 27, 2008 Posted June 27, 2008 Re: Ok here's an easy one for someone Yup, you're right. I don't know what I was thinking... having a brain cramp. Didn't sleep good the night before.
