I used to have it set by folder size and date, but now it shows up as music and I have no idea how to change it. any ideas??

You can do it by date, but I don't know if you can do it by size. Windows usually doesn't have folder sizes listed in the directory view

Hi Link,

Basically, it's like this:

1. From an Explorer window, choose "View" - "Customize this Folder".

2. When the folder properties multi-tabbed dialog box appears click the pull-down underneath "What kind of folder do you want?".

3. Choose the folder type:

* Documents
* Pictures
* Photo Album
* Music from various artists and albums
* Music from one artist
* Music from one album
* Videos

4. When satisfied with your selection, click "OK" to save your settings.

Hope this helps :grin:

I don't see the customize this folder anywhere under view. Check my screenshot. Also this is on a windows XP machine. This is on the root of the drive not in any folder. I see that option when you go into a folder on the drive just not the root of the drive.

Go to View/Choose Details. Uncheck the Music context menu items.

No go. On my other tech machine it shows it as it should with no music details. Shows the folder with the sizes and data created. etc.. I thinks it is a music directory for some odd reason.

Maybe this will help: Manage the context-menu entries for files, folders, drives and Namespace objects
