If the pitchers keep bearing down and the hitters keep swinging for the
fences, anything could happen. Everybody knows that and that's what I'm
trying to explain. Heck, while I write this I am obliged to keep a gun in
each hand and a knife in the other. Fortunately everyone survived except
those who were drowned in an adjacent bog.

You are not familiar with the way malware, malware removal, or the registry
particularly the run key works. When you system is infected with malware it
adds itself to the run key in the registry. Malware removal programs, most
of them, will remove the infected files but not the entry in the run key and
I am using the run key as an example because it is the most common for
malware. Therefore when the system is booted it tries to execute the entry
in the run key but the actual file it is trying to execute has already been
removed by the antimalware program. That is what generates the error
message, that orphaned registry key. CCleaner will find that entry and
delete it. That effects performance.

You should update your knowledge on what happens when you format an NTFS
drive. Additionally, a format will not remove anything hidden on the
outermost tracks that normally are not writable but CAN be used, e.g. by
malware. The only sure way to kill everything is with a partition delete and
recreate.

You really need to make up your mind and stop asking for things you
"require" AFTER you've seen what's offered. You asked for something and got
it. Pissed you off, didn't it? So you start adding more requirements.
Typical troll/idiot behavior.

I /can/ read, and that was just stupid. Surely you're capable of
more original insults.

However next time I boot into my XP partition I will see if they
actually DO say anything about it, let alone HOW to do it from
XP with NO other tools and NO command line.

I will be fascinated to be proven wrong. But I /have/ asked, and
AFAIK you STILL can not do it, even in Vista. I don't know about
6.1.

Got proof? All computer (and esoteric audio and "best
skateboard" etc.) magazines claim absolute impartiality. You are
welcome to start a class action suit if you can prove they are
intentionally misleading the public to make MS and PC makers
(and skateboard makers) rich.

(I know I should have replied with this to Mr. Chambers directly
but I didn't bother... Slow night tonight though...)

Article ID: 321379 - Last Review: March 21, 2008 - Revision: 5.2
How to add the Print Directory feature for folders in Windows XP, in Windows
Vista, or in Windows 7

How about the ability to do it with a single click? It's just a batch file
with replaceable parameters.

AFAIK it's not supported otherwise but you're being a little niave in your
"requirements". I didn't in clude any of the data because I don't think you
really want to; you're just using it to whine with.

I just booted into my XP SP3 partition and there is NOTHING in
help about this.

Beautiful. I said "NO command line, NO other programs". A batch
file is an extension of the command line since it runs in the XP
"DOS that is /not/ DOS". NOW who can't read?

No, it's an extremely valid point. Printing a directory's
contents is an essential basic function.

Anyway, I've had enough of you. Go Twaynk somewhere else.
