I'm helping a friend sort out her computer, presumably it's full of spyware and viruses. Shes running Windows XP.
My problem is that I went on her computer, looked in C:/ and all there was was: config.msi, 'g' and bootex. That's it!
Now, it said "42 hidden" at the bottom so obviously the rest of windows is lurking. I try to click on 'options' so I can change it to display hidden folders, but the only options are "map network drive/disconnect network drive/synchronize'
If I type c:/windows/.../ whatever the directory opens up fine, but why the heck is everything in C:/ invisible?
I have literally no idea how to make these files visible again! Any help?
