soleimanian 0 Report post Posted November 10, 2005 Restore Windows File And Folder Protection Windows XP offers many new and more effective features to protect your system. For example, Windows hides files and folders stored on Windows, Program files and system directory to protect them from being changed or deleted. When you want to open system folders for first time, windows displays below screen These Files Are Hidden This folder contains files that keep your system working properly. You should not modify its contents Show the contents of this folder If you click on “Show the contents of this folder” in left panel under System Tasks, you will view contents of folder or drive. BUT You can remove this feature forever by clicking on “Show the contents of this folder”. To enable this feature again, you should change your registry entries. 1- Click Start > Run > and type “regedit” to run Windows Registry Editor (without quotes). 2- Find following key: HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\ Explorer\ 3- In right panel there are four DWORD values, for instance, shell:SystemDriveRootFolder. 4- double click on DWORD and give value of 1 to enable this feature 5- Close Windows Registry Editor and restart your computer.
