No, I didn't. I cleared them once before I added the 'AllFolders' entry and
it's still there. It must by in a context with the maximum 'Bags' value of
5000, because the 'AllFolders' entry seemed to work for me for a while. Now
I reached the 5000 entry limit an dthe trouble begins again.

But one last question. The 'BagMRU' and 'Bags' Keys exists at
'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Classes\Local
Settings\software\microsoft\windows\shell\' and at
'HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\'. Are both keys
uses by explorer or is the
''HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\ShellNoRoam\' unnecessary.

There is no 'desktop.ini' file in those folders. And even if so, in that
case explorer should allways use the "picture" view and not randomly,
shouldn't he?


Thanks for your answers
