Find files and folders
Desmond;1183784 Wrote: Find files and folders date modified etc. This worked in XP has been scrapped in vista WHY? If you use Everything Search instead you'll find your hard drive doesn't run on all the time. Everything Search is free and only works on NTFS partitions. It uses the file system journaling to get updates of file system changes instead of API notifications that cause your drive to be indexed yet again. Way better. Unless of course you are not running NTFS. -- MilesAhead "I worked myself up from nothing to a state of extreme poverty." - Groucho Marx |

Find files and folders
Hi, Desmond.
The WLM Team decided that the familiar Menu Bar was just wasted real estate, so they decided to hide it, by default. Many WLM users still haven't found out how to show it, and we get questions about it every day. To show the Menu Bar temporarily, just press Alt. To toggle it on semi-permanently, use Alt=M, M. This is the Menu Bar (with File, Edit, View, etc.), which is not the same as the customizable Toolbar. I don't recall the default buttons on the Toolbar because I changed them long ago; mine currently starts with New, Reply group, Forward, Print... RC -- R. C.
