Hello all, recently i adjusted something in my folders-file type- option. i don't know what i did to all the folders, but now when i try to open any folder the search window comes up(the one with the wizard looking in his globe).
Please can someone help me to get folders back to just opening as normal.
it started off as i was looking to see why i could not send an e-mail -with the option of resizing- directly from "my pictures" folder..
