Hi Pete,>>But if I'm moving files around or am just checking folder contents I
want to use the Explorer tree structure. How do I do that from
Start-Run? I use Explorer all the time, dragging and dropping files, and
so on. I can't see how Start-Run solves anything.<<
If you go to start|run and type in \\computername\c you should get a windows explorer window up that will list the contents of the c drive on the target machine. I do it all the time. It just seems quicker to me to type the drive\folder I'm after, rather than to navigate thru trees (waiting after each click). IOW, if I have a window open on this (not my FS) machine that contains the latest cut of FSUIPC, I go start|run and type \\home\f\fs2000\modules and I'm there instantly. Then I can drag the file right to where I need it.
Apparently from the KB article that Andrew found, if you start|run and type \\computername\ you may get the delay you see, but, if you type \\computername\c the delay should not happen. I can't verify it here since all of my machines are XP.
