lost show folders option
Hi, I just recently lost my "show hidden files and folders"option in file
view option.Usually I should have 2 option in hidden files, one show hidden
files and one hide hidden files and folders. And now I have only one option
which already selected "Hide hidden files" so I don't have an access to my
hidden folders now, please help

Re: lost show folders option

Hi Brink,Thank you for your help and support.Actually the show hidden
file option is came back but not in usual shape,I mean it should be have
2 option both of them circular shape and when select one of them you can
see dote in the middle.But now I have show hidden file but Balck
rectangular shape and I have no choice to select it as its always "Hide
file" is selected. Please what do you think, I used first the option in
the tuturial but wasn't work and then used 2.option and its work .

Hi Waleedtawfiq, and welcome to Vista Forums.

That's strange. Can you post a screenshot of it to help determine what
might be the problem?

I must admit that I have never seen anything like that before. You
might try running a *sfc /scannow* command to see if that can find and
fix any bad system files that may be the cause.
