Windows Explorer

Hi,

How can I setup my Windows Explorer like my XP Windows Explorer (No
Favorites, etc.)

Is there anyone who has a PDF document describing how I can do those changes
and to make Vista look more than Win 2000 or XP with classic style ?

Regards,

Jerry

Right click the Desktop and select 'Personalize' from the menu. In the
dialog box, select 'Themes'. In the Themes drop down menu, select Windows
Classic. Apply/OK.

Not like XP, but you also mentioned Win2K which it does look like.

If you want Vista to look like XP, you will need to go to a third party
product like Windows Blinds or just install XP.
