Hi,
In NetBeans 6.0 RC2 under WinXP SP2, click "Tools" > "Libraries" to open the Library Manager. Select any Library and
then click the "Add JAR/Folder" button at the right side of the Library Manager dialog box. A new dialog box titled
"Browse JAR/Folder" will appear. Click the combobox to the right of the "Look In" label; it should only contain the
"Desktop" and "My Documents" folders, when it should also list all the Drives available in my computer, as well as
Network Places and all subfolders of the Desktop folder. If I want to select any driver/folder other than "Desktop" or
"My Documents", I have to click the "Up One Level" button one or two times. In NetBeans 5.5.1, the combobox contained
all the correct items. Cheers,
Roger

Reassigning to openide. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

The change was intentional. See the comments in issue 109703.
