Hi,

I don't know how this changed but lately when I select more than one file or folder by left clicking and then holding down shift and selecting the last file in the list, the 'containing folder' for every item I selected is immediately opening, so if I highlight 12 items in a list, 12 folders open :eek:. Can someone please tell me how to stop the folders from opening?

Thanks.

What you describe is what happens if you select multiple files/folders, hold Shift key down, and then double-click. So maybe you are inadvertently double-clicking, or perhaps you have changed mouse settings to double-click when you single-click.

Thanks, that was the clue I needed, it was a gaming script I use for rapid clicks. :D
