Re: Hidden folders

Tech-Archive recommends: Fix windows errors by optimizing your registry

When I activate the status bar while in Explorer (File manager not
IE) it says there is 1 hidden folder in documents and settings and
"all users" has 8 hidden folders.

So while in explorer I go to Folder options and view and I have
"show
hidden files and folders" checked, but explorer still does not see
them. If I use a different file manager it shows they are there.

Why does explorer not "see" them and how can this be fixed?

Many Thanks

Under folder explorer view, go to the address bar and after the name of
the file in question type \New Folder\ and see if anything pops up.
You can also try \New Folder (2)\ This happened to me last night and
the files popped up.
