Write your reply.

assistant: Hmm, well it happened again yesterday, and always seems to happen with
folders. It doesn't happen often here, but it's annoying when it does. I had
shutdown and rebooted before I thought to try using the RESETWPS to close and
restart the WPS. Next time I'm going to try that and see if it clears it up.
(RESETWPS is part of WPTOOL19.ZIP on Hobbes, which also has CHECKINI).
If it does work, it's a lot faster than a reboot!
