Finding Files

[Guest]

Why can't I find files under the location C:/Documents and
Settings/Owner/Local Settings/Temp (when I go to find it I don't see anything
after the 'Owner' file). I've looked in the drive and done a search but
nothing comes back. Is it hidden? How can I access files here?

Thx

Anything in Local Settings and down stream is Hidden.

See this first, Hidden files and folders do not have to displayed to Search
them...

To display Hidden files and folders...

Start | Settings | Control Panel | Folder Options | View tab
Check:
Display the contents of system folders
Show hidden files and folders
UNCheck:
Hide protected operating system files (Recommended)
Click Apply | Click OK

[[Hidden files and folders will appear dimmed to indicate they are not
typical items.]]
