Bug Description

Hello,
I would like to say, that this is the best operating system ive ever seen, its even better than Mac OSX Moutnain Lion.
However, ive been having problems, which ive also given this software to friends, and I fear that this incident may happen with them.

Whenever I go to files, it seems normal, however when I click on pictures, videos, or even the regular home file, it says it goes to the file, but however its just blank. I do have Hardware expierence, and I believe that this is a software issue.

If you believe that this is a hardware problem, then ive listed:
Intel Core i5-3570K
GTX 560 Ti
8GB RAM 1333MHz
500GB Hard disk space particioned (398GB for windows).

Thank you for taking the time for checking out this certain problem, and keep up the good work. I wish that there is a way which i am able to help.

Not sure I fully understand what you describe but the screen shot just looks like you've dragged the favourites/shortcuts bar on the left all the way across to fill the whole window. You should just be able to resize it by moving the cursor to the far right of the window until it turns into the double arrow and then click and drag the shortcuts bar back to the left to the required size.

Hi Nic
I don't see your reply below on the fix. Sorry am I missing something?

We should add a sane minimum size too.

Maybe settle with 100px wide for minimum size? And 50% width relative to the window's width for the maximum size?
But I don't have any idea of how to do this :P
