Vista annoyances

[Howard]

1 - In windows explorer backsapce no longer goes up a directory, it goes to
the previsouly visted dir same as alt + left arrow. there's no shortcut for
going to parent dir.

2 - In command prompt, droping a folder to the windows is disabled, in
previous versions of windows it gives the path of that folder. (this applies
to files too)
Please add a shortcut key for pasting.

3. Restart your computer no longer prompts for user confirmation. This could
probably be re-enabled with a registry hack or powertoy

4. Is there a way to use the XP picture preview slide show. the new one is
slower and more resource intensive with all those 3D effects.


Thats all for now :)

For #1, I believe you can use alt + up arrow to go up a directory. Or you
can click on the 'bread crumb' bar.
