Hi Group: I installed a software program on my computer. Now when I go to “My Computer” It does not look the same. It changed.
No Titles or Separation of the folders. Their all lump together. Can someone help me to get it back the way it used to be?

Photos enclose of how it used to look. I tried looking in the View section but no good.

I have mine set to View > Tiles > Arrange icons by Type and Show in groups and I think it’s what you might want.

Well I didn’t put up a fancy screen shot but it looked to have the same categories as you. Glad it worked

I just knew I should have highlighted the ‘Type’ selection as well as ‘Show in groups’ in mine

I’m giving SnagIt and Fastone Capture test drives at the moment as a replacement for my aging copy of Hardcopy – otherwise see Screen Capture Programs » Windows Secrets Lounge

I haven’t played Scrabble for ages – there aren’t enough Z’s in a normal set to play with my Cz wife…

Thanks I use Jing- Snap pictures of your screen
and like it, but haven’t played with the capability of moving the screens over so they weren’t overlaying what was underneath. I wondered if you were doing the “prt scr” deal with Paint etc. I’ll check out Snag-it too. Thanks. WOW~! That looks great for capturing scrolling screens…30 day trial…found a site offering full version for free but expired Jan 7th

”Syzygy” is one of my fall-back words…

I have Snagit. Its the best to work with and Edit Screen captures . But I use Faststone 5.3 version which is Free. It’s very fast with a Small Footprint.
