On what operating system? This ng is for all 64bit Windows systems.

Windows XP x64 Pro Edition.

I am using FileDisk Images, might have something to do with it.

Bye,
Skybuck.

Hi, I don't know but somewhere there is an option to support '8.3'
filenames, I can imagine - if you are dual-booting (which I can't remember
if you are?) that if you share disks/partitions across both systems, if you
have this support enabled on the one system and not on the other?

Just a thought!

I don't know this will apply to everyone but I had continued problems with
Windows explorer and Internet Explorer crashing and restarting. I could not
find anything in the discussion groups to help me, so "in a flash of
brilliance" (desperation I suppose to be the better word) I went into
Internet Explorer tools and disabled almost all of the add-ons. To my
surprise and delight it is now in 24 hours and I have not had a single
'Windows explorer has stopped working" and "Internet explorer has stopped
working".
So, I am posting this in case some of you will also be lucky enough to get
the response that I did by disabling the add-ons. I left only the Microsoft
add-ons and then only the ones that I thought were absolutely necessary.
I'll be interested to hear if anyone benefits from this.

There is a no-add-ons version of x86 IE in Vista. There are three total;
the default, the no-add-ons, and the x64 versions.

Re: Windows Explorer crashes when copieing/renaming folders with s

Well, certainly that's worth doing, yes. Clearly, one of the addons you'd
installed was, at best, not well behaved. I've become quite conservative
about what crud I allow to install itself into my IE. It does appear to
improve stability!
