| Guest | Re: How to disable full row select in details mode ? Knight The only way I know to do this is to switch to List View. In Details view the entire line will always be highlighted. This was actually one of the most requested changes for Windows Explorer when in details view. -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "knight" <knightcrawler@gmail.com> wrote in message news:F0D5096F-5E57-4678-9CB9-7A898C6A0354@microsoft.com... >I want it to be like Windows XP in which only the filename was selected. >There > must be a workaround or hack to disable it ? |
