Windows XP Question

I know this isn't really photography related.... Well it kinda is it effects the way I have to download/go through my photos.

When you open My Computer/ My Documents/ My Pictures.... anything like that, on the left hand side of the screen you would have a sidebar that shows a description ie: photo that was clicked on, file size ect... (I hope you all know what I'm talking about) Well, I must have changed one of my settings and now it's gone. Any ideas on how to change it back. Sorry, I'm sure its really simple but I just havent been able to change it back. :confused:

In Windows Explorer, under Tools > Folder Options, in the General tab there are two options in the Tasks panel. Did you previously have "Show common tasks in folders" and now it somehow got changed to "Use Windows classic folders"? If so, setting it back to "Show common tasks in folders" might bring back the left panel that you were talking about.

Blame it on the little gremlins that live in PCs. The same gremlins that drove me over to the Macs. :mrgreen: (just kiddin' ;) )

it's those same gremlins that keep changing the resolution/compression settings on my S2. I never touch that option, and it find the settings lowered upon occasion. Usually after I've taken a shot.
