but i dont want the pane in my computer i only want it when i open explorer
But thats the only way.Because you go to "my computer" when you select a folder in explorer pane,thats why it disappears.
but this wasnt the case in xp ... or was it
cant remember
me neither
Does the favoriot pane shows when u open "My Computer"? I guess it doesn't opens after u open a drive or any folder, right?
Do this
1) Open any folder where it is not showing , & then do as arsenal_gunners said.
2) Go to Tools->Folder option-> View & set to "Apply all folder". This should solve the problem.

now its there in my computer also thts wat i dont want ... i will have to reboot into xp and chk if xp mein it is like i want then vista ka goof up ... vishal ka thread mein entry
^^ Its really a goof-up buddy. Actually in XP we arnt allowed to hv explorer pane in My computer. Even if we enabled it using "Folders" button, next time it'll be automatically removed. Explorer pane was only for Windows Explorer.
But in Vista they hv made it to work in both My Computer as well as Windows Explorer and thats why it works same for both.
But it should remain in Windows Explorer after clicking on folders.
You can enter in the "Vista Goof-ups thread". u r most welcome...
