Hello,<br />
<br />
can you explain a bit more? What is the &quot;SharePoint look and feel&quot;? Could you post screenshots of the two different experiences?<br />
<br />
Are there any particular steps that you can repeat to receive one result or the other?<br />
<br />
&gt;&gt;&nbsp;Sometimes when I go to open a file the Windows Explorer ..<br />
<br />
What exactly do you do? Open Windows Explorer and click on a file? If so, where does the SharePoint look and feel come in. If not, what steps do you take?<br />
<br />
cheers, teylyn

Sometimes when I go to open a file the Windows Explorer window looks like the regular Windows Explorer view that you alway see and sometimes it almost has a SharePoint look and feel. &nbsp;Why is this? &nbsp;How do I always ensure I get to the SharePoint sort of view?
