    is there a way ( without buying the Mavis up button :rolleyes: ) to navigate up one folder in Vista's explorer ?

    When you have a long folder name structure theres no single click way of navigating up one folder that I can see ??

    Not single click, but you could click the little double arrow thing on the left to drop down a list of previous folders and use that. Or press ALT+up on your keyboard.

    I think you can click the different segments of the folder name structure to navigate up.

    Thanks but backspace brings you back, which is not always to the parent folder. Alt + up arrow does navigate up however if I'm using the mouse I'd prefer not to switch navigation tools.


    just have to get used to it I suppose
