| Documents folder marked as hidden The documents folder has all of a sudden become a hidden folder and the option to hide/unhide is greyed out. Consequently I can see the folder in the Desktop/Username(Mark) folder but it is not visible in C:\Users\Username (Mark). This is driving me nuts as not all "save" options take you directly to the Desktop\Username folders where the Documents folder is visible. The folder is at it's default location (I did move it to my secondary hard drive but it never worked very well so I moved it back to it's default loaction C:\Users\Username) I enjoy Vista but have had endless problems with these things and it seems Microsoft just want you to leave everything at the default setting...which is extremely annoying! Thanks, Mark |
