Folder Option Not Available.

[WDGC]

The reference to "Managing pairs of Web pages and folders" and the three radio button entries at Windows Explorer -> Tools -> Folder Options -> View -> Advanced Settings, in this thread (http://episteme.arstechnica.com/groupee/forums?a=tpc&s=50009562&f=99609816&m=309001158731&r=937004258731#937004258731) at Ars Technica Forums has caught my attention.

I'm using XP Pro SP2 and these entries aren't present in my installation either. I find this somewhat disconcerting and wonder how common this omission is; has anyone an explanation and possible remedy?

I have learned the "Managing pairs of Web pages and folders" entry only appears in the View pane when Microsoft Office XP/2003 is installed, hence the absence of the entry in my installation.
This option is not a standard component of Windows XP, but added by Microsoft Office XP/2003 setup. Anyway, you can add this option using the REG file available below.
