JS This is somewhat confusing, but Windows lets you set the font size in JS 2 places: Appearance (which affects very few things) and in Settings (last tab) - Advanced (which affects nearly everything, sometimes in JS bad ways). You were absolutely correct Jernej. In SETTINGS I found the I had selected large font when I initially set up this computer. I switched it back to small fonts (which is too small for these aged eyes) and sure enough, the display problems I had submitted had disappeared. I didn't bother checking the connection center but the folder properties now displayed properly. However, since the smaller font is no longer comfortable for me I had to go back to the large fonts. So, did I understand Marek correctly in that he thought this was a bug and he was going to submit it to Bugtrackers? -- Jack LaRosa Using The Bat! ver: 5.0.8.
