I am facing one problem, In my PC while Exploring My Computer -> I am not able to see Folder Option in Tools Menu.I have also customze and add Folder Option, but still it is hide in menu. I know this is due to some virus, I have also scanned anti vir. but due to it My OS is Down. Again I installed OS and again my pc is infected with same virus name is Brontok.A is there any removal Patch or some safe repair ?
If folder option is not seen please try it by registry editing.
Open Run and then type “gpedit.msc”.
Now goto
User Configuration > Administrative templates > Windows Component > Windows Explorer.
Click on Windows Explorer you will find the 3rd option on the right side of screen
“Removes the Folder Option menu item from the Tools menu”
Just check it,
if it is not configured then change it to enable by double clicking on it and after applying again set it to not configured.I hopes that you will find the option after restarting windows.
SOLUTION 2 : Folder Options not available in Tools Menu and Registry Editor Disabled
Guys!
Many ppl find that in their windows
Tools -> Folder Options is not visible, they also can't access it from the Control Panel. I hv seen so many ppl facing this problem, so I decided to post this tutorial, in this tutorial I'll tell the reasons which can cause this problem and their solutions:
1.) You can enable Folder Options by simply editing the Windows Registry! Just type
regedit in RUN dialog box and it'll open Registry Editor, now goto following keys:
Code:
HKEY_CURRENT_USERSoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesExplorer
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINESoftwareMicrosoftWindowsCurrentVersionPoliciesExplorer
And in right-side pane, check whether a DWORD value named
NoFolderOptions exists or not? If it exists then either change its value to
0 or delete it.
2*Problem
A few days back, a friend came to me and told me that he was having trouble with his
Windows XP. The show hidden files and folders was not working at all. If he selected the radio button “Show hidden files and folders”, and then press Ok .. the changes would just disappear upon opening the dialog again. It was probably some virus attack after which the
Windows registry was not being updated properly. So here is what I did to restore it back.
SOLUTION:
In the right hand area, double click hidden and change the value to 1.
