Windows update changed things??

I am not sure when this happened? but I will try to explain it as best as i can. I have lost the use of my "Back button", and now all my folders which i click on to get to a certain location, pile up on the bottom task bar??

Plus when i used to left click on a picture, it would display a small version of that picture. It doesn't anymore? Plus when i click on "C" drive it used to show me a pie and how much space was there, it quit doing that as well???


Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Sheldon

You can fix the thumbnail problem by repairing, reinstalling or upgrading IE.

"Black button"?

As for your pile-up, try this: My Computer > view > folder options > settings > under the "browse folders as follows" header, select "open each folder in the same window"

Hope this helps

Plus when i used to left click on a picture, it would display a small version of that picture. It doesn't anymore? Plus when i click on "C" drive it used to show me a pie and how much space was there, it quit doing that as well??? With the pictures folder open go to view at the top and click on" View as Web Page" and this should show the small picture at the left. Do the same thing with My Computer for the "C" drive to show the little pie.
