File count wrong in folder

C

C.Wilder

I have a folder C:\Documents and Settings\Administrator\Application
Data\ATI MMC that shows a file count of 60 with 10.8Gigs when I view
properties but it only shows 20 files of 17.5 MB. Does anyone have any idea
what is going on?

Thanks.

You probably should not be fooling around with this folder.

However, if you are curious, in Windows Explorer, go to Tools | Folder
Options. Click on the "View" tab. Select the radio buttons to "Show
hidden files and folders" and "Hide protected operating system files"
and OK your way out.

After you have satisfied your curiosity, I suggest you reset the View
options to re-hide hidden and system files.

I forgot to mention that I have view hidden files set. It is more than
satisfying any curiosity but a concern over the major discrepancy of a
missing 10 gigs.

You need to show system files as well as hidden files. Do you have both
settings set and still not see the "missing" files?

Set to view hidden and system files and folders.

I have an almost identical system with the same configuration and the ATI
MMC folder holds one file. I will try posting to the video ATI group but it
looks a bit different since the last time I posted there. If anyone here has
any ideas I will be searching for a fix.

Thanks..
