    hey all, have a new dell laptop running windows vista and have a really annoying thing about the address bar. for ex, if i open my documents, up in the address bar it says> C:\Mick\Documents which i totally understand but when i click on the down arrow to go to another location all the options are previous websites i've been too, its like been in a web browser... and if i create a folder on the desktop and have some files in it, in the address bar it will have the name of the folder, but when i click the down arrow it still comes up in a list of websites and not what it should come up, ie. my computer, my documents, C: drive,My pictures etc......
    i am just very confused, any1 any ideas and thanks in advance....
    Mick

    Websites? Got to say.. windows really can do anything.

    How long is this problem lasted? Can you do a system rollback to time before this problem?
