mastors....

me having probs.. i just hid a folder then after that when i come to show it from folder options it wont show up... i tried to restart then select "show hidden files and folders" but doesnt work...

i tried to make new folder then hid it, still wont show up, i cant see a blurry folder... then i make aa new folder -it shows a filename "new folder(2)" so it recognizes the existnce of the old folder...
 
1) What OS?
2) Do they show up from a command prompt? (type "dir /a:h" to show hidden files from the command prompt - no quotes)

Have you tried unchecking "Hide Protected System Files.."?

I'm wondering if it was labelled as a system folder.

Also Hi EP and people. I found this place again while looking through a oooollllllldddd backup. I have filled over 10TB and was looking at my collection of antiques. Any bids on the 500Mhz Win 95 fix?
Any of the SP crew still out there?

Impressed you have kept this alive this long EP! So many sites have come and gone. :(

Just did some crude math and I apparently joined almost 18yrs ago, how is that possible???
