File count in Windows - Page 2

Reason for them now showing up: they had both hidden and system attributes set.

Somewhat odd for .jpg files to have that though.

Aye i know, it looks like they were the album art jpg's though so maybe that kind of explains it. Still shouldn't ever have been given system attributes though.

MarcLister · 30-10-2007, 22:44

Ah. So you had the hidden files and folders option on show but they weren't as your OS (XP I presume/hope) considered them system files and so hid them in defiance of the show hidden files and folders setting?

CliffyG · 30-10-2007, 22:47

Aye, never even considered that (obviously

), it's Vista 64 though.

MarcLister · 30-10-2007, 22:54

Pfft! You Gooners think you're all that because you use Vista x64.

It's great DOS wins again, can't trust anything seriously the windows GUI actually brings up

You don't like operating systems, do you? Back to Windows 3.1 for you then.

Yeah i'm not having much luck with most at present, i need to get back to XP! Vista is a royal pain on my laptop and lets not mention the U word just now although i had some luck earlier today

Vista on your laptop just needs 2GB RAM tbh.
