Cheers. I know without having to think how to do this using XP, but, as always with anything that's a newer version, they have to change things and you have to relearn how to do some of the simplest things..! Quite frustrating when you just want to get on with things. But, once I knew where to look, it was easy.

I have the same problem as David's. I have clicked the "show hidden files and folders" and then click Apply button but doesn't take any effect. When I open the Folder Options box again, the radio button still points to "Do not show hidden files and folders". Even when I unchecked the "Hide extensions for known file types" and "Hide protected operating system files", it did not work. Need help here...

Hi! I have several folders hidden in my computer, i followed the steps bellow, but just can't unclick "do not show hidden files and folders", it just doesn't let me do that. I entered the folder options in mode "run as administrator", but still doesn't work. Any idea? Thanks.
