Re: Right-Click on Folder, Select Properties - No Response

Thanks for the info, Speedy. We know this is related to IIS W3C shell
extension, but your added note would help too.

Hi Folks:
I used the hints on this thread. And it resolved this same problem.
Please do read the whole thread as the info in it is most excellent.

I would however recommend trying the simplest and least dangerous
solution 1st, which is to let your Firewall Program (Norton Internet
Security
in my case), to "Allow All" for inetinfo.exe and reboot.

An easy way to see if this is potentially your problem is to look for
the Status of World Wide Web Publishing Services. If it says "Starting",
then
you have this problem. After allowing all for
"C:\WINDOWS\system32\inetsrv\inetinfo.exe" in my Firewall program settings,
and rebooting, not only did my Properties Window show up again, but the
system boots much more quickly.

Hi,

Can anyone please help me, after I installed Service Pack 2 and enabled
Internet Connection Sharing (ICS) on my PC, the folder properties are not
working at all.

I've tried disabling ICS (no changes).
Tried disabling Context Menu items (also no changes)

I've also done all the altest Windows updates! :(

I know it will help if I reinstall WIN XP Pro and only SP1. :'(

Thanks in advance!!!
