Windows Explorer Tree View, Expand on Single Click Options Advertisers


On my laptop, when I SINGLE click on a folder in the left pane of Windows
Explorer, the files/folders in that folder appear in the right pane AND the
folder expands in the left pane, showing subfolders. This does not happen on
my desktop however... the folder does not expand in the left pane unless I
DOUBLE click it. Where is the setting for this??

Go to Control Panel and double click Folder Options.
Click on the View tab.
Find "Display simple folder view in Explorer's Folders list" in
the Advanced Settings box.
It sounds like it's checked on your laptop and unchecked on
your desktop.

Good luck

Thanks!

I too turned this setting off yesterday unwittingly and thought it was much much more than that. Having forgotten that i actually did that. Thanks for the good news. Its so much simpler to just click once and not have to get right on the plus sign. Thanks again.

Briliant!! So simple but i have been bugged by this for the last 3 months - thanks for the info.
