| File count wrong in folder I have a folder C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application Data\ATI MMC that shows a file count of 60 with 10.8Gigs when I view properties but it only shows 20 files of 17.5 MB. Does anyone have any idea what is going on? Thanks. Wilder |

However, if you are curious, in Windows Explorer, go to Tools | Folder Options. Click on the "View" tab. Select the radio buttons to "Show hidden files and folders" and "Hide protected operating system files" and OK your way out. After you have satisfied your curiosity, I suggest you reset the View options to re-hide hidden and system files. -- Lem MS MVP -- Networking To the moon and back with 64 Kbits of RAM and 512 Kbits of ROM. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_Computer |

I forgot to mention that I have view hidden files set. It is more than satisfying any curiosity but a concern over the major discrepancy of a missing 10 gigs. |

Do you have both settings set and still not see the "missing" files? -- Lem -- MS-MVP - Networking To the moon and back with 64 Kbits of RAM and 512 Kbits of ROM. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Apollo_Guidance_Computer |

I have an almost identical system with the same configuration and the ATI MMC folder holds one file. I will try posting to the video ATI group but it looks a bit different since the last time I posted there. If anyone here has any ideas I will be searching for a fix. Thanks.. Wilder |
