I'm having weird issues with the preview pane in Vista. When I open games,
and turn on the preview pane for the games folder, it will turn the preview
pane on with some other folders as well. (Folders that are in an entirely
different location - even a different drive partition.) Likewise, if I shut
off the preview pane, it will shut it off in the other folders as well.
Thanks

Vista Home Premium SP1 - 64-bit
Intel Core 2 Quad Q6600

Hello Nerd,

The Preview Pane settings is universal for all windows with the same
folder template. If you turn in on or off in one window folder template,
it will also be applied in all windows that have the same folder
template. You can work around this by changing the folder template, for
the window that you want different than the others, to a different
template.

Hope this helps,

Weird... I didn't change anything at all, and this time it didn't affect
the other folders.

Strange, iIt may have had a different folder template than the others.
I'm happy to hear that it is working for you this time around.
