Another way to disable the warning message when you open the Windoze folder is: 1. Open the Windoze folder. 2. Click Show Files. 3. Right click anywhere in the folder and click "Customize this folder". 4. Click remove customization. 5. Click Next 2X and then click Finish. 6. Voila! Never will you have to see that warning message again. NOTE: I have only tested this on Windows 98. I'm not sure if it will work on any other version, but go ahead and try.

Thank you very much. The view, folders option, etc.... was useless. This way was perfect. That was one of the most annoying things that Microsoft ever did.

Unfortunately, our company removed evyerything about customization. Is there a way to fix it through the registry? (I am Admin on my machine)

Wahoo! I hate Microsoft's habit of trying to protect the user from him/herself! If you screw things up, so what? At worst you can always reinstall Windows. But this worked - a very neat solution!
