Hi Lynn, I thought I had send those instructions to the list, but I can't find a copy, so here they are:
* Open a Windows explorer window. * tab to the "organize" button. * press spacebar, which should bring up a context menu. * arrow down to the "layout" submenu and open it up with the right arrow. * arrow down until you find the "preview pane" and make sure it is not checked; if it is checked, press <enter> on it to remove the checkmark; otherwise press escape.
