      FULL PRODUCT VERSION :
      J2SDK 1.4.2

      FULL OS VERSION :
      5.1.2600

      A DESCRIPTION OF THE PROBLEM :
      One can change some settings related to file dialogs in Windows using the Tweak UI "powertoy" (in the Common Dialogs section). The following features can be modified:

      - Whether a Back button is present
      - Whether previously used filenames are remembered
      - Whether the "Places Bar" (on the left) is present
      - The five directories shown in the Places bar

      I believe that none of these are honored by the Swing file dialog. (Is it so bad to use a native one? :)


      REPRODUCIBILITY :
      This bug can be reproduced always.
