107062 2002-12-18 00:48:00 Hey, I am in Explorer looking at all my files (using XP PRO) and the little "Details" and "Other Places" panel on the left hand side had disappeared. How do i get it back? JamesStewart (874)
107063 2002-12-18 01:05:00 If you have the Standard Buttons toolbar click on the Folders icon to deselect it and your details, etc panel should return.

If you don't have that toolbar go to View>Explorer Bar and remove the tick from Folders.

107064 2002-12-18 01:39:00 it didn't work, it isn't there JamesStewart (874)
107065 2002-12-18 02:16:00 OK try this then: in Win Explorer go to Tools>Folder Options>General and in Tasks make sure that the radio button in in "Show common tasks in folders" and not in "Use Windows classic folders". Susan B (19)
107066 2002-12-18 02:18:00 Yep, it works now, thanks, i know i didn't do that, so i am wondering how it happened! But thanks again. JamesStewart (874)
107067 2002-12-18 02:43:00 I'm pleased that you got it sorted. :-)

If you want to keep it that way, go back to Tools>Folder Options>View and click on the button for "Apply to all folders".
