I tried applying this patch and it "seemed" to work.

have my interface set for the W2K format since it allows me to nest
folders in a way that allows me to quickly find a program quickly. XP
did away with this.

After applying the patch, if I right click on any menu item under Start
Programs and select "Open" it would open a dialog box asking where to
move the file(s). If I Cancel the windows, I eventually get the action I
expect. Removing the keywords from the registry worked just fine

Guess I'll stick with the Power Toys for XP...........

I know this is a discussion of Vista, just wanted to let you all know...

Hi Hank,

Yeah, the patch was meant for Vista. It was worth a try I suppose for XP Pro though. Sorry it did not work for you.
