| | Re: How do I change toolbars in folders?! Jim In Vista it's called the Command Bar and unfortunately it is not customizable. It will show the most relevant icons, depending on what task you are performing. Microsoft is taking a lot of heat on this and there could be changes in the near future. You can display the old style Menu Bar in Vista by pressing the ALT key. -- Ronnie Vernon Microsoft MVP Windows Shell/User "Jim" <Jim@discussions.microsoft.com> wrote in message news:C835C4A2-3D58-4599-A21F-6083E6C200C7@microsoft.com... > In XP to change the folder icons – View-Toolbars-Customize – easy. > OK I give up – how can it be done in Vista?! > Many thanks > |

| | Re: How do I change toolbars in folders?! Hi, Jim. In Vista's Windows Explorer, you can turn on the Menu Bar temporarily by pressing the ALT key, as Ronnie said. You can turn it on permanently by clicking Organize | Layout, then checking Menu Bar. RC -- R. C.
