Automatically Expand to Current Folder: half-finished?
For starters, let me state that:
1. I've searched all over Win7 forums on this site and others, and haven't found a solution.
2. I've seen the tutorials on this site. I know how to access the options.
So please spare me any FAQish advice and basic tutorial links.
What I'd like to know is this:
Currently, even with the "automatically expand to current folder" option enabled, that functionality only occurs when navigating in the right hand panel. Opening a folder via double- (or possibly, single-) click in the right hand panel causes the left panel to reflect that change: the folder tree expands to show that folder.
This is only half satisfying, however, as I would ultimately like to see the FOLDER I OPENED expanded (showing me it's subfolders in the left panel), not just it's parent folder expanded to show the one I opened along with its siblings.
Even worse, when you navigate in the left-hand folder tree, you are still required to double click to expand a folder.
Even if I enable the "single click to open an item" option, folders in the left hand panel don't expand after a single click.
SO...
Is there any way to make folders in the tree expand with a SINGLE CLICK in the left hand panel (i.e. how it worked in XP)?
1. Win +E
2. single click on computer in folder tree
2a. computer automatically expands in left panel (NOT in right)
3. single click on C:\ in folder tree
3a. C:\ expands in left (again, not in right)
if I want to make the right panel change, i double click
Is this possible in Win7 via a hidden option? Registry hack? Something?
