Well ... I followed the instructions and it did get rid of the "Show Files" nag.
BUT... it also disabled the file preview effect.
So what I did instead was: I moved the Folder.htt file from C:\Windows to a floppy
disk (just in case I didnt like the results of my little experiment ::grin::)
Then I Copied the Folder.htt file from the C:\Windows\Web folder and pasted it to
C:\Windows
tadaaa !!!!! =O)
PS: Since It worked fine I also pasted it to the C:\Windows\System folder. If for
some ungodly reason I need to set it back to normal I have the original Folder.htt
in a floppy disk.
And I believe you can't put that Folder.htt anywhere on your hard drive cause then
that folder you put it in will give you the "Show Files" nag.
(Not %100 sure, but wasnt interested in testing it.. lol)
