Folders appear to be making themselves hidden

Hello

Something strange appears to be happening on a colleagues user account. Can
anyone help?

My colleague is working predominantly in Word documents. He was working away
on a range of files recently when he logged back onto his machine and
couldn't find them anywhere. At first we thought this was a synchronisation
issue that a few other people have experienced but it turns out that the
folders are automatically hiding themselves. As far as I am aware he hasn't
set the folders to be hidden and they only contain word documents. When he
goes to View\Hidden Folders they present themselves. When he logs into a
different machine they disappear again until the view\hidden folder option is
reactived.

Does anyone have any suggestions as to what is causing thsi?

Thanks

Graeme

when he/she logs in.. is it on ONE account?
as you log in with different accounts..the other user files are hidden
or unaccessible for another user.. except for administrator
rights..which im assuming those are admin accounts..
make sure to sign in under one account..
and also.. if you want.. change the "saveas" option to a different
location such as c:/newfolder
