Re: Where's my boot.in?!



Hi,

Open Windows Explorer and click on Tools -> Folder Options -> and select
View tab. Search for "Hidden files and folder" and select "Show hidden files
and folders" and click OK to apply new settings. You should now be able to
see boot.ini file on %systemdrive%.

I hope this helps.
