Solve : File Folder Properties? |
Answer» <html><body><p>Hey all:<br/><br/>Using Win XP.<br/><br/>I was following the MS KB article on "How to add Print Directory" feature to Windows Explorer, but must have done something wrong.<br/><br/>Now, when I am in Explorer, and I double-click on an icon, it defaults to the Search window.<br/><br/>If I <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/right-239192" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about RIGHT">RIGHT</a>-click, "Search" is the bolded option, which I would presume means I made it the default option.<br/><br/>If I go to Control Panel=>Folder Options=>File Types=>File Folder=>Advanced, I have two options, "find", and "Print Director Listing" (which I added). "find" is NOT <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/bold-900479" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about BOLD">BOLD</a>.... <br/><br/>Did I mess up in regedit?<br/><br/>How do I fix?<br/><br/>Thanks!<br/>rjbinney..... Is this what your talking about ?<br/>It does'tseem to apply to XP.<br/><br/>This article explains how to add the print directory feature, and how to enable printing of the directory listing from within Windows Explorer. <br/>MORE INFORMATION<br/>To add the print directory feature to Windows Explorer, follow these steps: 1. Open Notepad, and then copy and paste the following text into Notepad: <br/> @echo off<br/> dir %1 /-p /o:gn > "%temp%\Listing"<br/> start /w notepad /p "%temp%\Listing"<br/> del "%temp%\Listing"<br/> exit<br/> <br/> <br/>2. Save the file as Prin.bat in the Windows directory, and then close Notepad. <br/>3. Start Windows Explorer, click <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/tools-25672" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about TOOLS">TOOLS</a>, and then click Folder Options. <br/>4. Click the File Types tab, and then click File Folder. <br/><a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/5-237653" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about 5">5</a>. Click Edit, and then click New. <br/>6. In the Action box, type Print Directory Listing. <br/>7. In Application used to perform action, click Prin.bat, and then click OK. <br/>8. Click OK, click Apply, and then click OK. <br/>9. Open Windows Explorer, right-click the folder that you would like to print a directory listing of, and then click Print Directory Listing. <br/><br/><br/>--------------------------------------------------------------------------------<br/><br/>APPLIES TO<br/>• Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Enterprise Edition <br/>• Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Datacenter Edition <br/>• Microsoft Windows Server 2003, Standard Edition <br/>• Microsoft Windows 2000 Server <br/>• Microsoft Windows 2000 Advanced Server <br/>• Microsoft Windows 2000 Datacenter Server <br/>• Microsoft Windows Millennium Edition <br/>• Microsoft Windows 98 Second Edition <br/>• Microsoft Windows 98 Standard Edition <br/><br/>dl65 <br/><br/>Yes. That is it.<br/><br/>And that feature is now listed when I right-click.<br/><br/>But when I double-click, it brings up a new Search window. I'd like it to open the window. You <a href="https://interviewquestions.tuteehub.com/tag/know-534065" style="font-weight:bold;" target="_blank" title="Click to know more about KNOW">KNOW</a>, let in some fresh air or something.<br/><br/>Is there a way to "Undefault" that? Argh!right click on folder.......open with......chose print....No, you're misunderstanding, Merlin.<br/><br/>I did something that has removed XP's ability to EXPLORE a folder when I double-click on it. Instead, it opens a new "Search" window.<br/><br/>Example:<br/><br/>I start Windows Explorer<br/><br/>I double-click on "My Documents"<br/><br/>A new "Search" window opens<br/><br/><br/>NORMALLY, <br/><br/>I start Windows Explorer<br/><br/>I double-click on "My Documents"<br/><br/>The "My Documents" subdirectory opens up.<br/><br/>But that no longer seems to be the default.<br/><br/>============================<br/><br/>I just did a System Restore. Inelegant, but it worked.Type the in the run box>rundll32 setupwbv.dll,IE6Maintenance<br/><br/>or use sfc......scannow.....in the cmd prompt.....or even the f8 key on boot last good config......<br/><br/>it may seem so,<*Did I mess up in regedit? rjb.*>rjbinney......As I read this article, this doesn't work for XP ..... I would try the following ..... Use system restore and go back to before you made the revision . That should get you back to the way it was .<br/><br/>dl65</p></body></html> | |
