The folder titles in my computer have vanished. How do i get titles under my folders again?

Question

Its annoying me as i need to click on every folder when searching for work.

Answer 1

Try these:

If XP: Press and hold shift key, right-click in empty area in side the C: and select “view -> thumbnails“. then try the other options there to see if the names reappear

If vista: right-click in empty area and make sure view -> 'hide file names' is not ticked. If the option is not available, then press and hold shift key, right-click in empty area and select view -> medium Icons

Answer 2

There is a feature in XP that allows you to have "Thumbnail" view without showing the folder names.

On the menu click "view" and then select "Icons".

You should see the folder names again.

Now hold down the "Shift" key and change back to "Thumbnail" view and your folder names will be visible again.

Hope this helps :)

that happened to me once. it maybe caused by a virus or it maybe because of corrupt system files. you need to reinstall the operating system.
