How may I un-hide a system file. I would like to have my Temporary Internet
Files folder to not be hidden so I can access it without having to show all
hidden files. I bring up the properties on the file and am unable to uncheck
the hidden box.
 
Ok. All you have to do is access your Temporary Internet Folder by going to
My Computer and typing: C:\Documents and Settings\#your username here#\Local
Settings\Temporary Internet Files in the address bar.

First, show all hidden files.
Then navigate to c:\documents and settings\[user]\local settings
Then drag the "Temporary Internet Files" folder to the desktop using
the right mouse button. Release and select "Create Shortcut Here".
You can then hide the hidden files.
Double-clicking the new shortcut will open the Temp Internet files
folder without having to unhide hidden files.

HTH,
John
