Sub Folders Become Folders
XP, IE7, OE6
I don't expect this to be resolved... since I performed several functions that could have caused it, but thought I'd share it just to get some ideas... In OE, I had several folders containing sub-folders. Today I noticed I no longer had sub-folders. I finally realized that all my subfolders had somehow moved from being sub-folders to regular folders. I think I got everything moved back the way they were originally. Yesterday I tried several times to install the Free AVG anti virus program but my system would crash afterward. Probably because I had F-Secure security system installed. I also tried a trial version of Acronis True Image, which I subsequently uninstalled. I also did a couple Restores using Restore points. Somewhere in all that, I guess my sub-folders decided to bail out and become regular folders???? Earl

Sub Folders Become Folders
Sub-folders are regular folders.
You can make them look like sub-folders. When folders.dbx gets corrupted, the sub-folders become regular folders. -- Ronald Sommer "Earl Partridge" wrote in message ...

Sub Folders Become Folders
They were under another folder with a Plus sign, which I called sub-folders.
Things seem to be working ok now, should I be concerned about a corrupt folders.dbx? Earl "Ron Sommer" wrote in message ... Sub-folders are regular folders. You can make them look like sub-folders.

Sub Folders Become Folders
The corrupt folders.dbx file was probably replaced by a new folders.dbx.
I wouldn't be concerned. -- Ronald Sommer "Earl Partridge" wrote in message ... They were under another folder with a Plus sign, which I called sub-folders.
