marmaduke Posted June 6, 2009 Report Share Posted June 6, 2009 For some reason, in all option dialogs, radio button and checkbox options have either "-ON" or "-OFF" appended to the label for each option. (Please see the attached screenshot.) This value changes between "-ON" or "-OFF" when the setting is toggled. I'm running an up-to-date version of Windows XP SP3 on both my desktop PC and my laptop, and this only appears to be occurring on my laptop. Initially, I thought this might be an accessibility feature that I had accidentally turned on, but there doesn't seem to be a corresponding option in the accessibility settings.Has anyone come across this before and, if so, is there a way of disabling it? It's not a major problem, just a little bit annoying! Thanks in advance to anyone who is able to offer any suggestions! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dencandy Posted June 7, 2009 Report Share Posted June 7, 2009 This is not a standard feature of XP with or without SP3. My guess is that you have some other 3rd party utility or application related to computer or folder optimization that is giving you this extra information. Do you have anything like that installed?Or it might be an application packaged by the laptop's manufacturer. What make is it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
