Show in groups enabled on desktop.

[--joker--]

So.. the story goes like that..
I restarted my computer for the first time after I installed Windows XP, and all icons are shown in groups , even if the 'Show in groups' option is not even checked, and the thing is that I can enable/disable this option on desktop.

Well I ain't used XP in like forever, but theres a program called Desktop Hijack fix. It can be used to fix most problems in which your normal background is not displayed.

Nope, the folders still appear in groups.
I think it's a bug or something, but indeed it's shitty.

Try using CCleaner to fix registry problems.

That is the only thing I can think of.

Look in Control Panel you might have installed a windows with some additional option aka one you have problem with!

Command prompt maybe. I havent used XP in ages though.

I think the best way to fix it is by not using a medieval operating system.

XP is still great OS! You can place it right after Win 7! All you haters used XP too remember that!
