hello,
1) (detail) When I go in helpabout in Windows explorer it gives me the version of Vista I use.No version # ? 2) (worse) Quite since the begining I get the warning telling that quick search has stopped working, looking for a solution on line and then nothing happens, this will go on next time I start my computer. I would like to get at least a warning saying the reason, looking for a solution and how to stop this warning. But for me no answer = I don't care your problem. 3) How can I see the real address of a folder ? Vista works like taking all the control. When there are no problems OK why not. But when there is a problem I have no way to trace where my file is gone. With real names you know where you files are. 4) I have no control on the left file tree part of the window. It moves quite randomly. Vista decides What You Have To See And Not What You Want To See (WYHTSANWYWTS) (I give Microsoft full permission to use this abbreviation freely). On french forum I say : "apart the post-it and spider solitaire it is worse than XP" Security: After the 3 month of norton trial I had Adware-gen found by avast the last day of norton AND THEN Spybot found Cram Toolbar, 2 times Kuasio.KA, TagASaurus and DoubleClick !!!! Many thanks for reading me. (waiting for a "Rescuer") regards -- disappointed with Vista waiting somebody(thing) to change my mind |

Hi Papiaud, Questions answered in-line below: papiaud;550117 Wrote: hello, 1) (detail) When I go in helpabout in Windows explorer it gives me the version of Vista I use.No version # ?

Hello brink,
Thank you for your answers. When I write this : "4) I have no control on the left file tree part of the window. It moves quite randomly. Vista decides What You Have To See And Not What You Want To See (WYHTSANWYWTS) (I give Microsoft full permission to use this abbreviation freely)." I mean : when I move the mouse to the left part of WinExp. i.e. the tree part, the content of this tree part moves by itself. It is not fix. I would like to get it fix (not moving by itself or according to the moves of the mouse). with sliding bars to be able to choose myself which part of the tree I want to see Something else : I understand that Vista is a big "Machine" but to make it working according to my will it is very difficult to find the right place where the corresponding information is! And I have no "Ms. or Mr brink" on my side :-) At the begining it tried the help but I was (and am) feeling like a needle in a haystack. Anyway many thanks (again : like if I had a "brink" icon on my desk regards -- disappointed with Vista waiting somebody(thing) to change my mind "brink" wrote: Hi Papiaud, Questions answered in-line below: papiaud;550117 Wrote: hello, 1) (detail) When I go in helpabout in Windows explorer it gives me the version of Vista I use.No version # ?
