Windows XP and Explorer

Toggle Viewing Folder List for a Particular Folder

SUMMARY: When navigating a Windows XP folder, toggle whether or not to show a view of your file system.
 
When viewing a folder in Windows XP Explorer, you can toggle an Explorer 'Folders' view that can appear in the left pane of the folder. This lets you see where the currently open folder is in relation to other folders on your system. Plus, you can easily navigate the folder tree, move folders around, copy or move files in the current folder to other folders, etc.

To toggle this view for a particular folder, check or uncheck "View" - "Explorer Bar" - "Folders" as desired.

Note that this tip only works for the currently-open folder. If you want to toggle the folder list, or Folders view, for all folders, read tip Add or Remove Folder List When Opening Folders.
