Windows Explorer Won't Open Folders

Comment:

I'm running Windows Vista Home Premium. For some reason, starting a couple days ago, Windows Explorer will not open certain folders. It will open most, but with a few it just will not respond when you double-click on the folder; it just keeps "processing" the "open" command without response. The folders in question contain graphics files in NEF, RAW and JPEG formats. Any help will be greatly appreciated!

You should post your query in the Vista forum... the link is in the column on the right. (This is the XP forum) The problem with Socialism is that eventually you run out of other people's money!
