Unfortunately, that's how it works in Windows 7.
Bad mistake on Microsoft's part, I'd say.
I don't know how to explain this more clearly to you.Is the path you want showing up in the list?
I'm not sure as i don't use that function often. Mine only shows a couple of paths in this box and i don't think they are paths i would have typed in manually for any reason but if i navigated to them by other means there should be more here.
The only thing I can suggest to you is to see if this behavior manifests in another user profile then you can assume it is a setting that was changed .....somewhere.
Please stop posting. You're an idiot.It's probably the path you typed in.
There are no folders to be display under a path such as F:\to be moved H:\ etc
There are no subfolders under that path, so it's blank.
It works correctly when you type in a valid path in your second example.
Hey civic2, I have been frustrated by the same problem. It's a pain not being able to pick from recent paths when saving files. If you find a solution please post backl to this thread with your solution. I will do the same if I have any luck.
