The way things used to work was:
In Windows Explorer, in the right-hand pane, if I double-clicked on a folder, that folder expanded to show its contents. Now the double-click opens a Search dialog. And now the context menu shows Search... in bold (which means it's the default, I guess). How can I put things back the way they used to be? TIA. Steve |
