Change of Right-Click Menu?


Recommended Posts

Have you tried using Folder options?

Open Explorer. Go to Tools (menu item)->Folder options. In the window that opens, go to the File Types tab.

Now find the "Folder" File Type as shown below:

Click the advanced button to change properties. The following window, with some changes will open up.

Chose open or explore and click set default. You're done!

Note that I did this with win 2000, There may be a few changes in win xp.

Nevermind, I find to solution through google :)

To TheTrainMan,..

What you need is just Run the command (START>RUN)

regsvr32 /i shell32.dll

That's it,...

Here's the detail information about it:

lol, what did that do?

The answer wasnt the "FOLDER" icon but "DRIVE". I managed to create an "open" by just naming it "Open" but then couldnt delete it. It opened, but in a new window.

The fix above using the RUn command works :D

Thank You :D

    • Not in Syracuse, NY. They're about to break ground! https://www.syracuse.com/micro...on-and-other-tech-jobs.html
    • Here in Finland we have lots of rural areas with narrow roads, one of the highest taxes in the world (cars are taxed way above EU standards) and fuel is quite expensive. Yet we educate our drivers to drive responsibly and safely in all areas, and our people respect each others rights and freedom to move around safely. Which is why we have even small children under 10 years old walking and cycling alone to schools in the streets, even in big cities. Safety is about being responsible and about respecting others. And I would hate to see AI (or anyone else) destroy our way of life. There are an always will be always outliers, and accidents happen, and machines break. I dont't want to see people relying on AI to do things like driving for them. I want people to think and react to the world around them themselves, and being responsible instead of them browsing TikTok or whatever instead of looking out the window, and then saying that "It wasn't me, it was the car". Already people walk around town with their eyes glued to a screen – I don't want people driving around the same way.
    • And I should hope none will. I don't want to walk ouside to have some randome AI drive over me and mine. Not that I want a person to do it either but I want there to be an actual person who takes responsibility of their actions instead of relinquishing control to a machine. In some highways I can accept self-driving, but even then there should be some kind of dead man switch etc. that actually monitors the drivers status.
    • No thank you. I want to drive myself, and not just because I don't trust a machine or whatever – I like driving, and I like doing it with a manual car without lane guidance and all other "driver assists". I wven rarely use cruise control. I went through and paid for to have a license to that allows me to do it, and do it responsibly instead of relinquishing control to a machine. I currently drive a van for work in a city, something like 200 km/day. If we everything is automated and computers decide everything for us, the dumber people will get since they don't have to bother thinking for themselves nor do they have to take responsibility for themselves since "it wasn't me, it was the machine" will be their future defence for everything. Soon, Neowin's writers will be out of a job because AI can do it just fine and it doesn't need pay. Wikipedia – a free service with voluntary writers – just started replacing real people with AI, and had to shut it down (at least for now). Lets let ai AI and those that run it (or rather run them) the keys the the world and watch it burn because no one is able to actually do anything without some AI assistant telling them what to do (driving included). What a world!
