Extracampine

Thanks Keith,

I will crosspost in future. Good advice about namespace paths - I did take
this into accout, and tend to access my music folders from the same route

I do not have explorer set to "Launch folder windows in a seperate
process" - in fact I'm not even sure what this means !
