I have a question about Why don't folders remember their position, sort order, or icon size?:

Apparently microsoft has developed a way in which the computer plays stupid, thereby perpetuating discernment on your part and asking "how.why". Here is an example. When first started to use xp every time i tried to open a folder or file, I would get the response.windows cannot open this file or foldr. would you like to go on line etc...I was ready to throw my system out the window until my wifes dad( a computer genius,literally, explained to me that you direct it to the appropriate container. either note pad or word pad and it magically opens it, the only thing is that it DOES IT EVERY TIME!!!!!tTheir is some one a very small person that lives inside of every xp computer.That is just one of thousands of tricks it uses to make you think it is stupid. Why? s Simple,it wants to run your computer it and microsoft.dont get me wrong it is better than 98, but definitely not worth the trouble of swithching if you use nt or 2000.j just a thought
