How to display hidden files

First, show hidden files in Windows XP

1. Open a Windows file window arbitrarily (such as “My Computer ”, “My Documents”) ;

2, click the menu bar & ldquo; & rdquo ;, select tools & ldquo; folder options & rdquo ;;

3, in the pop-up window, select & ldquo; View & rdquo; tab;

4, then & ldquo; advanced settings & rdquo; directory select & ldquo; show hidden files and folders & rdquo ;, then click & ldquo; OK & rdquo; can be.

Second, if some protected system files if not hidden files may not be displayed. The solution is to cancel the "Hide Protected Operating System Files" check box in step 4 above. If you select "Tools - Folder Options - View - Show All Files". After saving, you can't see the hidden file. When you open the view, it will become "and the hidden file will not be displayed". It is because the virus caused the above modification to be invalid, and it needs to be solved as follows.

1. In the Group Policy Run command, “gpedit.msc”, open the “Group Policy” dialog box, and then click “User Configuration” to open the “Administrator Template” and “Windows Explorer”. Select “ from the ‘Tools & rsquo; menu Delete & lsquo; Folder Options & rsquo; Menu & rdquo;, double-click to switch to the “ Settings & rdquo; tab, you will find & ldquo; Enabled & rdquo;, so You can't see the folder options. Set it to “disabled” or“not configured” OK.

2, modify the registry, "run --regedit", enter the registry, navigate to:

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\windows\\CurrentVersion\\explorer\\Advanced\\Folder\\Hidden\\ CheckedValue in SHOWALL, check if its type is REG_DWORD, if not, delete CheckedValue, then right click “New”-->“Dword value”, and name it CheckedValue, then modify its key value Is 1 . Here everyone should pay attention to the "CheckedValue" value of the key is decimal or hexadecimal, only the value in hexadecimal is valid (some flawed viruses will make a fuss in this regard). If it still does not display properly, please try to set the value of the binary key values ​​CheckedValue and DefaultValue under the nohidden key to 2; the ShowallValue value is set to 1 and the DefaultValue value is set to 2 under the showall key.

CheckedValue correspondingly modifies its value to 1, type is hexadecimal

DefaultValue corresponds to modify its value to 2, type is hexadecimal

Text corresponds to modify its The value is @shell32.dll, -30500.

If it still can't be displayed, it should be the data of HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\windows\\CurrentVersion\\explorer\\Advanced\\Folder\\Hidden that is lost or damaged once in a hundred years. In this case, please find Hidden.reg on the Windows XP installation CD, double-click it, and then click the "OK" button to add the complete registry data to the current system registry. (Note: If you don't have an XP installation CD on hand and you are unfortunate enough to encounter this situation, you can try this method: find a computer with no problem, put HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\windows\\CurrentVersion\\explorer\\Advanced\\Folder \\Hidden this branch is exported (if it is named 1.reg); then back up the registry branch of the computer in question; finally import 1.reg to see if it can solve the problem.

Show “Hide protected Method of operating system file "

HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\\Software\\Microsoft\\windows\\CurrentVersion\\explorer\\Advanced\\Folder\\Hidden, change the key value Type of the right window to “checkbox”

3, open “Notepad”, copy the following content into Notepad. Then save as .reg file Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00
