Gaia: have a look at the following in your registry, which you can open with Start,
Run, type: regedit
backup your Registry before making any changes.
Explorer subkey:
NoSetFolders = enable/disable Folders in Start Menu -> Settings
Similar setting can be also found under:
HKEY_USERS\.Default\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies
and:
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Policies
for more info, see the link below after your text.
let us know if this works for you...
