Board index » Windows Vista » Trouble with multiple file selection in Vista Explorer

Windows Vista6
Hello everyone,



After some time of using Vista suddenly, I couldn't select multiple files in

Explorer either holding shift or ctrl. Any ideas how could I fix it?



I suspect Vista Manager tweaker has done this nut job, however Registry

doesn't allow to view the dates of hanges in it, so I couldn't be sure it is

Vista Manager.



Thanks in advance,



Vlad

In Explorer I cannot select more than one file or folder at a time, not

using the mouse drag options, nor using the control or shift keys, how can I

fix this?



According to Keith Miller [MVP] it's an issue affecting some users, the only

available work around is a script written by Keith that helps MOST people

with the multi-select problem.



It will remove single-select from saved folder views & saved defaults.



Right-click the link below & select 'Save Target As..."



mysite.verizon.net/res18hr7/FixSingleSelect.zip" >mysite.verizon.net/res18hr7/FixSingleSelect.zip



Then extract the contents of the .zip file & run the script.

Thank you, guys. Works.



As fars as I see it fixes registry at

Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\Streams\Defaults

I think it's a registry value change issue.



Thanks once more.
