he wants to make them normal not hidden , not showing them only

I have windows vista, but I think this is what you are asking about:

Code: Select all

my computer -->Organize tab --> Folder and Search Options --> View tab--> Advanced settings window --> under hidden files and folders check the show hidden files and folders

Hope it works with you.

not showing the hidden folder , he wants to make it not hidden as any normal folder the problem that there is no hide check box in proberties of hidden folders

not showing the hidden folder , he wants to make it not hidden as any normal folder the problem that there is no hide check box in proberties of hidden folders

So probably that's a difference between vista and windows 7
Maybe some Google search would the trick.

What type of Version of Windows 7 is he running? Legit or Warezed activated?

Try changing the attribute in the command prompt. The command is as follows:

Code: Select all

attrib -H "C:\path\to\file.ext"

Hope this helps.
