I always disable "Folder Options" in Windows, so that no one can change the settings. You can disable it either using "gpedit.msc" or using Registry Editor. Type regedit in RUN dialog box and press Enter. Now goto:
But in Vista "Folder Options" and "Search Options" have been combined in a single option "Folder & Search Options". So if we disable "Folder Options" using registry editor or gpedit.msc in Vista. It doesn’t disable "Folder options" completely. I found that one can still access it using following method:
1. Open "Search" and click on "Advanced Search" button.
2. Now search for anything by typing something in Name, Tags or authors text boxes.
3. After doing this, you'll get another toolbar under these options. Click on "Search Tools -> Search Options" and voilla, you'll have full access to "Folder options". Every tab will be visible.
Now whats the use of disabling "Folder Options"? IMO, Search Options should only show "Search" tab and not all the tabs.
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\Current Version\Policies\ExplorerNow in right-side pane, create a new DWORD value NoFolderOptions and set its value to 1. It'll disable "Folder options".
