Seems that in XP is (or can be) a bit different. I had TC configured to
show all files, and the files were shown, but no action I could apply on
them. So I had to change settings on OS level. Then it worked. It was a
"default" XP Home, with no a "service pack".

Yes, that might be very handy when we share our machine. <g> On my
machine, Windows is even not visible at all. You firstly have to boot in
DOS, then in (command line/"terminal") Linux, then to decrypt some
"sensitive" WinOS files, and reboot to DOS, and proceed to Windows.
Then, if you want to get/send a mail, you have to mount a container with
Mail and The Bat, and before you get connection you have to decrypt
Dial-up Networking.
THAT's a :grin: .
:banana:
Of course I don't do that just because I am such a selfish freak; I am
just experimenting with "possibilities". :eyes:
