Missing folder backgrounds on Vista ultimate

Hi,

Whenever I open a folder, I used to see a large picture of folder with the
music icon or the CD icon inside in the background. But I am not seeing them
any more and I have tried several settings change in the "folder options"
from the control panel and also the "customize" options on the folder but
still I cannot see them.

By going thru the articles on the microsoft web, I could understand that
when we go the "Customize" options on the folder, there are options to choose
from the drop down - like Music detail, documents... and selecting these
options would change the background and I have tried them without success. I
have also tried the reset option but no success.

The OS is Vista Ultimate SP1

Please help me out.

Thanks,
Nagesh NC

Hello Nagesh,

I'm not sure of what you mean.

If you mean for your user folders, then this may help.

Personal User Shell Folders


If you mean the thumbnails, then this may help.

Thumbnails in Windows Explorer

Hope this helps for now,
Shawn
