Thanks for your response Dave. No, it's wasn't an explored proplem, I
haven't used Explorer for years, I use Xplorer2. You were right in
that it was a third party program. It was caused by Vuepro. I had
reinstalled it a couple of months age and it doesn't use an install
program, it just copies the files into the Program Files folder. The
trouble was that it is such an old program that it copied them into
the "Program Files" folder vice the "Program Files (x86)" folder. I
just moved them to the x86 folder and everything works fine now.
Thanks for all the responses I recieved.
