Status Bar and Explorer in WinXP
This is annoying me now, I want the status bar to be visiable on explorer windows (not internet explorer) standard file manager type explorer. I can turn it on using View, Status Bar but there must be a way to save this, I've tried the Options and then saving "Apply to All Windows" and this doesn't help...

Anyone got a solution?

I have just tried and when I turned it on then closed and reopened explore it was still there.

Will look to see if I can find anything about this.

edit: just rebooted and status bar is still there. Will check knowledgebase.

I assume by this you mean Tools > Folder options > View Tab > set all folders "Like Current Folder" and then closed Explorer ?

Re: Status Bar and Explorer in WinXP
This will work. It did for me.

Go here http://www.kellys-korner-xp.com/xp_tweaks.htm

Download option 2. Then run it.

It's title is self explanatory, it ups the number of folder settings remembered to 8000. It just tweaks the registtry setting.

The existing setting is only about 400 I think. Nowhere near enough.
