Where did Windows Explorer go???
Mon, 16 Jun 2008 18:55:26 -0700
What is now called Windows Explorer in Vista has been crippled so that
only the files and folders for the current user can be explored.
Where is the replacement for Windows Explorer in Vista? I am looking
for the tool that will allow an administrator to explore the entire
hard drive, create folders and copy fi ...
