Cant Unhide Folders / No Folder Options In Tools Or Control
Aug 5, 2005
When looking for some files, I tried to unhide a folder and it just made more folders disappear. I checked the Hidden folders option (in the properties window of the folder that contained the files I was looking for)
and the folder I was in became hidden. I cleared the box for hide folders but it is still hidden.

To unhide a folder, I do Tools>folder options>view & click on the 'show hidden files & folders' radio button. But when I apply or say 'OK' & exit. The folders are still hidden!When I check Folder Options again, the button is back to 'Don't show hidden.'So I'm not able to unhide files or folders!

Trying to put in my earthlink email under tools and internet options, so that when I click on an "email customer support" link or something, it goes to my email instead of microsoft outlook express or something like hotmail. Choosing earthlink isnt an option in there.

Tweak Description: Just like the title says this registry hack will add printers and folders, scheduled tasks, network connections, fonts, and administrative tools to my computer which makes it very easy to navigate through the system settings. Note: it is recommended to back up the registry before any registry hacks.

I used this "hide a folder" program called "folder lock,".It unhides the folder containing the files, but the files are still hidden. They're still there, because when I copy and paste the folder, it shows that the files are being copied, but in the new folder they will be hidden again. Checking the "property" of the folder shows the correct size as well. How can I get windows to reveal them?
The hidden files are listed in this folder called "n|+|-n" or something like that I think, but when I type that in dos or windows it won't let me access them.

XP Media Centre. When I click My Documents the folder list appears but will not open any when clicked. Also cannot open My Computer. Control Panel opens and list appears but cannot open some folders such as Add/Remove Programs. Also, I.E. will not start. However programs such as Word will start OK, and will open some files.

Using WinXP Home Sp2. On my start bar I have lots of folders listed, and as a result, Win shrinks the start bar down to my recently used folders. This is really annoying because I always have to click the expanding buttons at the bottom of the start menu - see bellow. Is there anyway to have the start menu contsantly expanded by default so I don't have to keep manually expanding it?
