| | Re: Find files and folders If you hit the ALT button you should see another bar just above the tool bar, this has always worked in XP & Vista as well as in Windows 7.

| | Re: Find files and folders Hi, Desmond. The WLM Team decided that the familiar Menu Bar was just wasted real estate, so they decided to hide it, by default. Many WLM users still haven't found out how to show it, and we get questions about it every day. To show the Menu Bar temporarily, just press <Alt>. To toggle it on semi-permanently, use <Alt>=M, M. This is the Menu Bar (with File, Edit, View, etc.), which is not the same as the customizable Toolbar. I don't recall the default buttons on the Toolbar because I changed them long ago; mine currently starts with New, Reply group, Forward, Print... RC -- R. C.
