please reply if it did not work for you. iam sure it would work.

Yes, I’ve seen the folder options menu, itself, disappear because of malware. What I meant was that I’m not sure I’ve ever seen just those items from it disappear. In my experience, it’s the whole folder options settings dialog that malware sometimes makes disappear. That’s, in part, why fixing that particular problem is one of the things that tools like SuperAntiSpyware can do.

Interesting.

Thanks!

This problem occurs, in case (a) the registry settings has been somehow corrupted or (b) the computer is infected with malware, and the malware changes or blocks this setting to stay hidden from the human eye. This was a more frequent problem in the earlier versions on Windows, and may not be so common now. If this happens, then this is a way to fix it.
