Question:

If the EA's for the directories contain position information (I'm presuming Icons), then wouldn't moving those
icons have the same effect since the new position would be written to the EA?

My right mouse button brings up the directory list but as it would appear if I had double clicked the
particular drive object on the desktop.

I do know that on my machine, sometimes it appears as though it must build the directory tree, and takes a few
moments.  I seem to recall sometime back when I had a directory that had problems, and would not report itself to
the system correctly (perhaps a bad track or something) and the drive listing would hang.

Probably not much help, but FWIW.



Best Regards,

Jim Scott
