is there any way to make these visible? I'm trying to
do something funky, and for some reason XP won't
*visualize* the hidden files on a boot disk
(bootdisk.com). I tried unhiding them with attrib, but
it tells me uh uh. What to do? Yes I did change my
folder option to display hidden files, but to no avail.
Hi
Have you tried dropping into a DOS window.
If you still can't do anything from the window, install
a older DOS program like XTGOLD. Be careful to set
it up to not read all the directories or it won't run as
XP has too many files.
When I had a problem with a virus, this was the only
way I was able to fix it.
On XP they call it a "command prompt" but it is a DOS
window.
