Hi Paul, > totally frakking ridiculous when looking at files in Windows *Explorer*
On my normal user account I've left things the way Microsoft set them up after a brief period of testing other settings. It's much easier to work with Windows when I don't see folders that I don't need for my daily work, such as AppData, etc. What's important: Documents is available, Network is available, and Windows finds most programs in the start menu, so no need to browse extensively around, either. I found I mostly need to access these hidden files for administrative tasks. For those I use a different file manager (FAR Manager), because Explorer isn't suited well. I also have a different user account (Administrator) with appropriate settings. I don't perform administrative tasks all the time, though. > or Terminal. The command prompt hasn't changed, files still show with extension and DIR /AHD shows hidden files. -- Christof _______________________________________________ Post Messages to: [email protected] Subscription Maintenance: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profox OT-free version of this list: http://leafe.com/mailman/listinfo/profoxtech Searchable Archive: http://leafe.com/archives/search/profox This message: http://leafe.com/archives/byMID/profox/68409d400b1249debffe4e1de91d6...@fpl5 ** All postings, unless explicitly stated otherwise, are the opinions of the author, and do not constitute legal or medical advice.
