Solved Explorer only shows 10 directories/files

[andis59]

All of a sudden something has changed in my Windows 7.
If I click on Documents in the Navigation window (left side) I then get a list of Directories but only the first 10 subdirectories are listed and I've got a link saying Show All ?? Objects.

It doesn't matter which directory I select I always get the first 10 and then I need to click on the link to show all.

Is there some way to remove this behaviour?

Does this help?
Show Folder Tree in Windows 7 Explorer

I think this is how it's supposed to work. At least that's how it is for me also.



Edit: If I click on the link for D-Temp that opens the folder in Windows Explorer and everything is there as it should be. The folders listed in the Start Menu are there to give you a hint or idea of what that folder contains.

Thanks for the answers!

How the Navigation window works I can live with. My annoyance is with the list (right side).
I did a check and it was link Rich said: it's only Libraries that has this function.
So to solve it I created a Favorite of My Documents and voilà! Now I get a list with all subdirectories and files!

Thanks again!

Ah, Libraries. Where did you find info on that being the cause of the 10 folder limit?

So you pinned a link (Favorite) to My Documents to the Start Menu? If so, I tried that and still only see 10 folders.

Hmmm...
I just made some trial and error. When I create a Favorite to My Document. When I click on it I am moved to My Document under the Library Documents. I see all subdirectories and files.

This also happens if I "open" Documents so that I see all directories that is included in this Library. If I select My Documents I will see all subdirectories and files

I can't see any special settings, but I might have done something...
