| Local Settings folder The Local Settings folder for "myname" returns to hidden when the system is rebooted. ("Myname" is also the administrator.) Under Folder Options, View, I have clicked the option "Show hidden files and folders" many, many times. The folder remains visible until I reboot. Also, the Local Settings folder for both Administrator and Default User remain visible. The Local Settings folder was previously not hidden, but something (or me) has now changed it to hidden. How can I set it to stay visible? Thank you for your help --      |

| Re: Local Settings folder As I said, it was previously not hidden. I want to be able to delete cookies and temporary internet files through Windows Explorer, as I have done for a very long time.
