Is it possible to cusomize the Vista file explorer toolbar like you can with
XP's file explorer? I'd like to have the cut/copy/paste toolbar icons in my
Vista file manager just like XP has.

Anyone have a solution?

Hi,

No can do, for some odd reason that menu bar was removed in favor of the
current, non-customizable one.

Thats just the default behaviour unfortunately, it cannot be edited.

If you would like to create your own, you might want to take a look at the

No, but you can right click to cut/copy/paste.

one way to get these buttons is to use an application called QTTabBar
from

Code:
--------------------
http://qttabbar.wikidot.com/
--------------------

i think you will also need the file tool plugin pack from the same
site
an alternative is to use
control c = copy
control v = paste
control x = cut

You might find this useful as well for this. It will show you how t
add "Copy to Folder" and "Move to Folder" to the Context (right click
menu

OR, you should get familiar with the keyboard shortcuts for Cut/Copy/Paste:

Ctrl+X---------Cut
Ctrl+C---------Copy
Ctrl+V---------Paste
