About the only really, really frickin (polite -nearly 4:30am now)
annoying thing I have found about Vista (apart from UAC) is it refused
to show my my file folders just like I like them. You know. With
little things like file extensions (.cfm, .zip, .jpg etc).

I mean come on! We are experts! But even for novices turning off the
ability to identifiy a file by it extension (blame DOS) is more of a
problem than a help. "Help Desk: 'yes but can you tell me the full
filename, was it a .bat, .zip, .doc... etc).

It was easy under XP to always show the .xxx for files, and still hide
system and other hidden files, no issue. Under Vista it is a lot more
obscure.

NB: been working long and hard but a Google search for "show file
extensions vista"....

Until I found this link:

http://www.tech-recipes.com/rx/1269/vista_show_unhide_file_extensions

Vista is so obscure (even tried so-called online documentation) as to
be well.... Aaarrrggghhh!

Now I am happy - the one thing that really pissed me off about Vista
has been solved. Onya Microsoft!
