Thanks in advance.

Excellent answer, but you're missing a step. Folder options are available by clicking on the icon appearance and personalization, or by changing the category to large or small icons view.

Firefox 7.0.1 on Win7 pro 64
Hello team FF & community.
sometimes FF 6/7 shows a VERY strange behavior:
While 'normal' things on Web sites (click on the links, edit text, scrolling, evolution of the tabs boxes) FF starts to ignore my simple clicks. The only way to work is with double-click instead of single-click (i.e. for links, enter a SBO, switch tabs, even to open a menu of Firefox) for all actions.Previously, the last example was about a minute
https://plus.google.com/circles/find
While moving to a "circle" contact - FF changes only are allowed double clicks. No errors, no message.
I found this behavior buggy on many different sites - simple websites and with complex features, too - in the past few weeks since bf6 + 7 are current versions.
With my other two questions, I get the idea that the current releases of FF contain more bugs in versions between FF1 to FF3.
OK, I think that this issue (change of behavior: needs double click to get the reaction of simple click)-isRESOLVED: -
I have disabled all addons and enabled/tested one by one... it was, apparently, the add-on "Multi links 3.0.0.16" was the problem.
I replaced it with "Snap Links 2.1.1" (installed, but not yet tried a new), and less than a week daily work of 10-12 I never got this bug again.
SOLVED!

Hallo,
I did a new install of windows xp from windows xp professional with SP3 and found that the explorer.exe folders is always in the simple click (point to select) mode. I tried the folder option to put in double-click mode. But only the right pane is successfully changed. The folders pane remains in single-click mode. However, my fries are doing a new installation of windows xp slipstreamed with sp3 (original without MS) pro doesn't have this problem.
I tried a solution days, only to find that it also occurs in windows 7, and install a tool called repair can fix it. But there seems to be no solution for xp sp3. Anyone who gets an idea how to change the mode of single-click in the left pane, double-click mode? Thanks in advance!
Best regards

My computer will start up screen that displays the icons of users. When I double click on my icon (or any other for that matter) it only highlights the icon and does not open it. So basically I can't get through this form and have not been able to access anything on my computer. What could be wrong here and what do I do to fix it?
Hello
Were there any changes made on the computer before the show?
Method 1:
Step 1:
Try restarting your computer in safe mode and check if the problem persists.

Step 2:
If you can log in to safe mode, refer to the link and try to do a system restore:
What is system restore?
http://Windows.Microsoft.com/en-us/Windows-Vista/what-is-system-restore
Method 2:
If you are not able to connect through safe mode, I suggest you try to do a restore from WinRE (Windows Recovery Environment) system and check if it helps.
Insert the installation disk to perform the WinRE .
What are the system recovery options in Windows Vista?

My files in Windows Explorer suddenly spent the double click to single click
Out of the blue my Windows Explorer has suddenly changed to open files and folders by double-clicking on a single click. I don't like this and change (mainly because my voice recognition software works best with the double click method). How can I go on this return failover? Here is a picture of my Windows Explorer, you will notice that all the files are highlighted as if they were links in Internet Explorer.
In the inside of any folder, press Alt on the keyboard to display the menu bar, and then choose Tools > Folder Options to change this setting.
