    explorer help in windows 7.
    « on: March 07, 2012, 05:07:33 AM »
    Dear guys and Girls.
    Running windows 7 and need some help. When in windows explorer I can’t get to see what’s in my main files. For example, Say I am scrolling down the left hand menu using the keyboard up down left and right arrows and move down from my music to my pictures with XP I used to see what was in the files in the main window. If I click from my music to my pictures then it shows what is in the folder but I can’t seem to get this to work using the keyboard. I tried expanding all files in explorer tree  but that didn’t work. Any suggestions? Thanks.

      Doesn't work for me either in Explorer, but it does in Directory Opus. I've actually never tried before now so I don't know if this is the normal behavior in Windows Explorer - I'm guessing it is.
