Hide The Downloads, Links, Favorites, Searches, Videos, Saved Games, And Contacts Folders (just The Folder, Not Contents)?
Nov 2, 2011
Is it at all possible to hide the Downloads, Links, Favorites, Searches, Videos, Saved Games, and Contacts folders (just the folder, not contents)? I've tried just hiding it like any other folder but it won't work.AND if possible, have explorer open in my home folder instead of libraries.
PS: I tried disabling libraries entirely, but it opens to My Documents instead of my home folder.

If you are using IE9 and are trying to save a download, you've probably noticed that your not given a choice where the file will be saved to. It is automatically saved to a specific file. When I want to save a download, I prefer to save it to the desktop. Is it possible to change this setting so I can save a d/l to where ever I choose?

Recently updated my Windows experience including Windows Mail but when I start to type in my group contact (25 names) the group enters the To... part of the email message, I type the email message, then click send, nothing. In my contacts folder I check the group and they are all there, yet when in the email message, they are not.

My favorites folder doesn't work.I use to put things like my Homework folder.Now i have to click Computer / Media (I:) / Documents / School.That is a lot of clicks.Sure i can make a shortcut of the folder to my desktop but i am so used to using favorites. It contain desktop.Now everytime i want to save something to desktop i need to go to the top and type it out...before all i did was click. Long story short i relied on Favorites Folder.
Essentially, my Favorites folder is there. However in the navigation pane(the left side) the favorites folder doesn't show anything. Even when I try to add new locations to it " Add Current Location to Favorites". I also tried Restore Favorites link.This stop working after I deleted a whole bunch of folders.I recently had to do a system format. It was working but then i deleted a whole bunch of crap and shared files.Possible solutions:
1) System Image restore to a long time ago. Very time consuming. As my system image contains much more than just Windows.It contains my Media HDD/ Windows HDD/ Software HDD. decompressing and such...i dont want to this option

Earlier today my husband wanted to sync his old ipod to our new computer. I also have my ipod synced to the same computer. When I was trying to figure out how to move songs from the ipod to the computer, I came across SharePod. I ran it on my computer and copied the files from the ipod to my computer just as the program had intended me to do. When I went back to itunes all my previous songs had (!) next to them and they couldn't be played because they could not be found.I went to try to open the folder all my music was in (Downloads, under Favorites) but this is what I see:I thought I needed to run the LNK fix but it didn't change anything, so now I have no clue what I did, what I'm doing, or what I need to do to get this back to normal so I can access my Downloads folder.

In windows 7 using windows explorer the up and down arrow keys do not work to display the contents of file folders. The arrow keys move the focus to the next folder in the left hand window but does not display its contents in the right hand window. Using XP and all previous versions of windows (after the introduction of the mouse) this was possible.Is this just my installation or has this feature been removed like the "remember each folder's view settings"?I have a large database in Access and the folder tree that it accesses is huge. Using the arrows instead of the mouse saves time and is bore ergonomically friendly to my hand.

Maybe I'm just over thinking here, but say you hide a file, sure you can access it through changing the folder options from show to do not show. So whats the point of hiding stuff unless you're hiding it from someone who is a novice at windows 7. My main goal here, is to have a folder, which is password protected, and have it filled with things that can not be accessed through any means other than entering the correct password and therefore entering the folder. I basically want it to be completely impossible for someone to access the contents of the folder without the password.

I can't seem to delete 2 folders that I created in ie9 favorites. Everything I tried to delete them I get the message that they no longer located in c:usersvabroomfavorites. I have even tried to delete directly in c:usersvabroomfavorites and still get the same message. Any solution to this besides reinstalling win7?

Working on my Acer Aspire yesterday, I went to open a file in Photoshop and couldn't find the file in the folder where I knew it was located. Furthermore, none of the files previously located in that folder were there anymore either, though the folder itself was in its proper location in the file hierarchy. After searching desperately around, I finally found the missing files in an entirely different folder. That folder had always been there, but with nothing in it.

I'm having an issue with installing certain things, such as plugins for Firefox, but also other small software I have to download first.When I try to install, for example, the Flash plugin via the official website,I get this message in a popup."C:Users*name*AppDataLocalTemp could not be saved, because you cannot change the contents of that folder.Change the folder properties and try again, or try saving in a different location."I'm not sure how to set either of those things.But what should I do anyway?This is preventing me to do a whole bunch of things.For one, watching videos on the internet. Not so handy.

When I start playing a game about 5 minutes into the game my screen flicker for a split second and then crashes into a BSoD. One of the BSoD's was something about mcupdate.dll and figured it had to do with mcafee so i uninstalled that. I wasn't able to get the other different kinds of BSoD's but maybe with the file I attached somebody can tell what is wrong. Also, when my comp crashes and I try to reboot it, it will freeze on startup,but if I wait 30 mins it will startup fine.

Before uninstalling the operating system all data files were backed up into a separate directory on C. After the o.s. was reloaded I downloaded Windows Live Mail and started to use it. I want to recover the backed up storage folders and the contacts folder and instal them into the new Live Mail. Since I am using the most recent installation, is this creating a problem that will not allow the backed up folders etc. to write into the new folders.

After moving an email to my 'saved stuff' folder within the Storage folder, I delete the original item within the Inbox. I find that the saved item has also vanished. This has happened over 6 times. I keep restoring the item by sending it to myself again from another source. I've been assuming that an item in the Inbox that is also in the Storage folder area would result in having two emails on my machine. Is this wrong? Is one a shortcut?

I was wondering if it was possible to make the folders nested in the Favorites of the Navigation Pane. AFAIK nested folders work in both Libraries and Computer of the Navigation Pane, however when moved to Favorites they are just a simple link.

I just got a new PC with Windows 7 installed and have run into this issue twice, both times with a particular folder - let's call it "UsefulDocuments2" (the actual folder name DOES have a 2 at the end, but there is no folder called "UsefulDocuments").
Sometimes, when I try to view the folder contents using Explorer or through Windows Live Mail (in an attempt to include a file in the folder as an attachment), I can't view the contents of the folder. When I access the folder, it has the proper path listed in the address bar of the window and displays the number of items (171) in the lower left corner. However, the status bar just says "Searching for items..." except I can occasionally see it flicker to say "171 items."
While it is "Searching for items..." (which is 99.9% of the time), it doesn't display any of the contents of the folder. The scrollbar on the side of the window constantly flickers - it's recognizing that there are 171 items in the folder and that the scrollbar is necessary, but then keeps re-searching the folder contents, I guess.
Weirdly, if I change the folder name to, say, "UsefulDocuments" it works fine (at least right now). If I then change it back to "UsefulDocuments2" it reverts to its old behavior. Also, if I open a file in it in Word (2010), I can view and access the contents of the folder without any problem at all.
Obviously, I can just change the folder name, but don't really want to for organizational reasons, and also am just curious as to what's going on and how to fix it should it happen to other folders, etc.

When I open Explorer, Favorites is displayed at the top of the left column, as desired. However, not all of the folders I have designated for Favoriates is displayed in the left column. When I left click on the word "Favorites," then in the right column the entire list of Favorites folders does display. (Meaning:there's a list of nine folders on the right side, but back in the left column under Favorites only seven are displayed.)I've tried all of the solutions described above and none fixes this problem. If I try to drag a folder from Right to Left, two things happen: (A) A copy of that folder is created on the right side (so I'll see the original and a version with "(2)" after the name; and (B) on the left side, one of the folders that used to be in Favorites no longer displays.I don't know why a copy is made on the Right, but the action on the Left leads me to believe that somehow the left column Favorites is set to display no more than seven (7) items, but I can't find where to change that setting
