John,

If XP Pro, do you have IIS installed? Follow the "PropertySheetHandler" part in that article.

I am having the same problem, Can't get Sharing and Security or Properties to 
work from right clicking on a folder.  Sharing and Security will work in Safe 
Mode.
All of the other options on the context menu do work.  I checked the 
registry for
the entry and I don't have it.  I am running XP Pro SP2.
I reformated my HD and reinstalled all of my software, 2 weeks work to correct
this problem the last time, and I don't see any reason to try again if the 
same
problem keeps coming back.
Thanks to anyone that know how to fix this problem.
