By default in Windows Vista and Windows 7, you need to double click to open any file or folder. But some may prefer to open the files and folders using a single mouse click.

So how to change double click to single click mouse selection in Windows?

Go to My Computer -> Press Alt in the Keyboard and you will see the File and Edit menu. Select Folder Options from the Tools menu.

Under the General tab, change the Click items as follows from Double-click to open an item (single-click to select) to single-click to open an item (point to select).

You can also change the settings to underline the icon titles always or only when you point at them.

Click Apply and Ok to make the changes. Now you can use single click using mouse to open files and folders in Windows Explorer.

Is there some place to download the Windows 7 ISO?

No, there is no place to download the Windows 7 RC. At first, what you have to do, is go to Bing search, "Windows 7 RC", click on the Softonic link. Click on, "Download Now." Click, "Run", and then it will download. It may take several minutes for the Windows 7 RC to download. After, the Windows 7 RC is downloaded, what you have to do next is, download ImgBurn. Then, open up the Windows 7 RC ISO file, via ImgBurn, and click on the CD and the arrow. Then, your computer, will burn the files to a blank recordable and re-writable DVD, if you have one in your CD drive. Then, go to My Computer via the Start Menu, and click on the icon that has the letter, "D" beside it, after you see a Blue Square to the right side of the text. Then, the installation window will appear. And then click, "Install Now." Then, the Windows 7 RC, will install on your computer.
