| deleted folder in hidden folder I indavertently deleted two folders form C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\RONALD\APPLICATION DATA\EBOOKSYS\OVERVIEW and C:\DOCUMENTS AND SETTINGS\RONALD\APPLICATION DATA\OFOTO\CACHE. . . .forgot they were in a "hidden" folder but didn't look like the files inside were needed. . .now when i try to copy files to a cd, i receive the message, "windows encountered a problem when trying to copy this file". . .i have run system restore to several different points, run Spybot and Adware, my virus protection is Trend Micro Internet Security 2007 and is up to date. . I'm not sure but i believe the problem is in one of the folders i deleted. . and i did empty the recycle bin. any suggestions as to what i can do in order to copy files to cd's??? I do not have a copy of Windows XP on a disk but i do have recovery cd's which came with the computer. . . not sure if i should use them or not. . thanks for any help. . R E (Gene) Foltz |
