Enable Folder Options

We might have noticed when our system was new we're able to see Folder Options under the Tools in any folder and even in Control Panel. But sometimes the viruses and some malwares makes them disable. The steps given below will work only with Windows XP Professional Edition. Before doing this make sure to scan your system and remove any viruses if any using a good anti virus.

Step 1: Click on Start -> Run and type gpedit.msc then click on Ok



Step 2: Then from the left pane expand in turn to,
User Configuration -> Administrative Templates -> Windows Components -> Windows Explorer


Step 3: Double click Remove the Folder Options menu item from the Tools menu in the right pane

Step 4: Select Not Configured and click on Ok


Now you can see Folder Options in Tools Menu
