In the OpenFileDialog the files list doesn't show up

1 New Member
For a basic application developed in VB.NET, I used the OpenFileDialog to browse and select a file.

For some unknown reason, I'm unable to get the auto-populate file list work on Windows XP SP 3 (as shown in the attached image), it works fine on my Windows 7 64bit computer and my co-workers Windows XP computer. The problem is specific to one PC.

I know it's a Windows XP issue but I didn't have much luck in finding any relevant solution on the Web.

Has anyone come across this problem.

Thanks,
Deepak

That should be the history of your past selections.
Could be a windows setting that clears/disables MRU lists.

Hmm, I guess it could be the autocomplete, in XP I had to have MS Office installed to turn on the inline-autocomplete, but there might just be registry setting that enables it.
