Then that folder is one that must have some special significance to the
O/S. Same goes for the 'My documents' folder. You can't customise that
one either.

My only solution for you, that I can think of anyway, would be to create
subfolders inside your Images folder and place various images in those
and customise those folders.

Sorry, best I can come up with.

There are already customised folders in my Images folder, each one carrying
as a name the year the pictures inside it were taken. That is exactly what I
can't see right now. Thanks anyway for your help.

(someone told me I could solve this problem by starting up my PC in safe
mode, then restarting it in normal mode. I should give it a try later and
let you know)

So, let's get this straight. It is the folders inside your images folder
that do not display the name of the folder or any example pictures of
what that folder contains, and it these folders that you want to change
so that they do exactly that.

So why don't you right mouse click on those folders and select
properties. Surely there is a customize tab available to you there.

It's all of those: subfolders AND images inside my Images folder.

There is a Customize tab, but for the folder type, "pictures" is already
selected.

And you've tried the 'restore defaults' buttons. There are 2 of them.
One you can see when you click on the customize tab. The other one is
found when you click on the 'change icon' button.

Other than that, perhaps there is a registry fix for this. I personally
don't know it there is, but, if I find the time I might do a little
searching.
