Vista Tutorial - Recycle Bin.

Hi again all,

Still getting used to Vista. Can anyone tell me how I can get my Recycle Bin
to look as it did in the classic XP format.
What I mean is, can I change it (or any other folders for that matter) so
that the folders pane on the left is removed, just displaying all the
recycled items?

If you need me to make myself a little clearer, please let me know.

Thanks,

Dave.

Open the Recycle Bin. Organise > Layout > Navigation Pane

Then Organise > Close.

It should stay like that after that. But infuriatingly, Vista seems to
forget window settings after a while, just like XP did.

I've just realised that the setting works globally. How crap!

Hey that's cool.

I wanted some other folders to look like that anyway. So it worked out
fine!!

Thanks for your help, Dave.
