Favorites

Sep 5, 2005 11:58PM PDT

When I click on Favorites, how do I make it so that the list that I see is already "expanded", instead of seeing a list of only my recently-opened favourites and having to click on the DOUBLE down arrows?

And likewise, when I click on a folder in the Favorites list, how do I make it so that the sub-folders list is also already "expanded"?

Thanks in advance for any assistance given.

Thanks a lot for responding to my query.

However, that box is already unchecked.

I actually have my Start Menu set up so that Favorites is not included as a link there. Instead,I access my Favorites from the links on the toolbar at the top of the Internet Explorer window.

I know it is possible to view my Favorites the other way because they used to view that way, and I'm not sure what I did to change that.

Do you have any other suggestions?

When I said, "I know it is possible to view my Favorites the other way", I meant that my Favorites used to view already "expanded", without having to click the double down arrows at the bottom.
