Hi,
My problem is that when I select "Show hidden files and folders" option in
addittion to unchecking the "Hide protected operating system files
(Recommended)" option so that I be able to view hidden and system files in
my system but after doing that It does not work I mean Windows does not obey
or follow its options and does not let me view hidden or system files on the
hard drive. I am using P4 2.4ghz,256 mb with win xp pro on my system.
Plz help in this regard.
Thanks in advance for u r help and time.

HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
Hidden Folders and Files
Value Name: Hidden

Value Data: 0 or 1
0 = Hide Files
1 = Show Files
Hidden Operating System Files
Value Name: ShowSuperHidden
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value Data: 0 or 1
0 = Hide Files
1 = Show Files

Hope this helps. Let us know.

Can you elaborate on that?
Tried what and what didn't work?
Open The Registry editor...
Start | Run | Type: regedit | Click OK |
Navigate to >>
HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\
CurrentVersion\Explorer\Advanced
What are the settings (the Value data) for Hidden and ShowSuperHidden?

Hope this helps. Let us know.

Hi,
I opened Registry to the point u pointed and changed values according to
your advice but It did not work. I know DOS and am easy with tweaking
Registry safely but Windows does not seem to obey its own commands or
settings in its Registry.
Any other advice plz.
