Suppose I open "C:\foo\bar"; the Explorer window displays
the contents of the "bar" folder. I want to get to the
properties of folder "bar".

Under XP, I could right-click on the icon in the window
title bar and choose "Properties". Voil�, done.

The icon has disappeared under Vista, but if you right-
click there, you still get the system menu, but a crippled
one with just Restore/Move/Size/Minimize/Maximize/Close.

I now have got to get up one level to "C:\foo" first,
look for "bar", right-click on it and choose "Properties".

Is somebody aware of a solution which would restore the
full system menu ? Switching to "classic view" does not
change the content of the menu...

Thanks.

Pierre
