Re: Windows Explorer left pane additional icons

Thanks all for the info.
I am using Windows XP SP2.
Sometimes after copy/paste or cut paste operation of files/folders in
Windows explorer, I get the icon which is used for unknown file
extension in left pane. Sometimes, i get the desktop icon 5-6 times in
the left pane and after that whatever i click nothing works. I need to
close the explorer and restart again.

I am sure it has nothing to do with any adware/malware/virus.
If you need more info, please let me know.
Also, is there a way I can attach the screen shot of the issue so that
it may help you to know the issue better.

Thaks in advance for your help/suggestions
