Does any one else have this problem.. In windows explorer and within
applications when I try to grab a group of files, often instead of being
able to grab the group, it wants to move the file that my mouse starts at..
Is this clear ?

In Explorer I cannot select more than one file or folder at a time, not
using the mouse drag options, nor using the control or shift keys, how can I
fix this?

According to Keith Miller [MVP] it's an issue affecting some users, the only
available work around is a script written by Keith that helps MOST people
with the multi-select problem.

It will remove single-select from saved folder views & saved defaults.

Right-click the link below & select 'Save Target As..."

http://mysite.verizon.net/res18hr7/FixSingleSelect.zip

Then extract the contents of the .zip file & run the script.

You're on drugs, drunk, insane, stupid, an idiot, a moron or a lying
linux troll.
Or all of the above (my vote)!

You're not old enough to vote you idiot. You don't sound like you're old
enough to even drive. And no, that bicycle with the training wheels
isn't "driving' my son. Even if you place a playing card in the spokes and
press the horn on your bike.

Cheers.

Has there ever been a point in your sorry pathetic excuse for a life
where the realization that you've been complete wrong occurred to you?
Or have you been this delusional all of your sorted life?
