Hello,
I can't view my hidden files or folders, even though I have the [show hidden
folder] option in the [folder options] ticked, and it still doesnt show my
hidden files.
I accessed the [folder options] again and it turned out that the [show
hidden folders] box is not ticked, even though i ticked it.
oh and im the administrator of my computer.

thanks

One or more options/settings in an ever-growing number of third-party
applications may be disallowing the change(s) from "sticking". These include
but are not limited to Ad-aware's Ad-Watch, Spybot Tea Timer,
SpywareBlaster, SpySweeper, Spyware Doctor, Norton AntiVirus, McAfee
VirusScan and/or Antispyware, and Zone Alarm (Free and Pro).

Here's something else about NAV that you may not be aware of:

Did you click "Apply" after selecting "Show hidden files and folders"?
Also, if you are trying to do something with the system, there is
another option just below - Hide protected operating system files
(Recommended).
