| | File Type tab I am relatively new to Windows Vista (and so far, I can't see any advantage over XP. If anything, it is one big frustrating experience, but 'nough complaining). Anyway, I am trying to fix a "URL" issue with Outlook 2007 and Firefox. Based on what I have read on the internet so far, I have to modify certain file types by clicking on Tools --> Folder Option --> File Type tab from within any folder. Yet the File Type tab is invariably missing. How can I restore it? Thank you. |

I expect it will be back in the next version of Windows. http://www.annoyances.org/exec/show/article02-500 ss. |
