• Cannot create because of hidden file hiberfil.sys.

  I can't activate hibernate on my Windows XP Home Edition because it is actually impossible to create the hiberfil.sys file. Any attempt to create the file cause error 'access denied '. I am an administrator on the computer and you can create any other file in the root directory of the system E: drive.
  Sort the list of files in the root directory, I think do not show the file. Any attempt to open the result file in 'access denied '.
  Cacls hiberfil.sys prints "the system cannot find the file specified."
  However, there are few programs that can see the file. For example, MyDefrag can show map disk file and the E:\hiberfil.sys file is considered to be a file system.
  What would you recommend to remove this invisible file?

  OK, I managed to solve the problem.
  Using disk hex editor I changed the name of hiberfil.sys to hiberfil.syt in $MFT, then chkdsk some kind restored the file and changed Hibernate service its size in current memory of the PC. The file is now visible.
  I'll check if hibernation is actually at work.

• Time Capsule hidden files

  How are you?

  I have a big problem, I made a copy of my macbook to time capsule 3 gen and delete of macbook.

  Now I need to use my files and I can't, they are transparent and do not open but to inspect the show that using 30 GB.

  How can I solve this problem?

  These files are extremely important.

  

  There are permission issues interesting past especially with El Capo.

  This could have been caused by you not deliberately creating a directory until you moved your files.

  On your screen to get information, there is nothing wrong with permissions, but nothing!

  You have enabled see hidden files in Finder? I don't think it will help, but you should try.

  You must also use the same computer and the same username... but if wipe you the computer and clean installed which can also be a problem even if you use the same user name.

  I wish I could just give you a bunch of Terminal commands to copy the files to your computer. My brain is too old to remember all the commands and I'm too frustrated to get them... but if you want to learn to make google copy of the files of the terminal. (rsync commands can be more mature to use). By giving access to the root, you can copy the files.

  The alternatives are

  Plug in a USB key in the TC... it must be big enough for all files on the TC and Mac format. Usually just say a drive of the same size... IE if your TC is standard Gen3 with 1 TB disk and then use a 1 TB USB drive or more.

  In airport utility to archive the TC.

  

  Certainly not erase it... I put a red box around erasing...

  Once you have finished of archive (it's pretty slow, but once started, you don't have the computer running)... Plug the USB key directly on the computer.

  Then you can repair permissions... utility disk used to do but El CAPO disk utility is a useless piece of lard.

  http://osxdaily.com/2015/11/04/verify-repair-permissions-Mac-OS-x/

  Huge progress in El Capo is to remove the permissions in disk utility and bring it back to the command-line... you can clearly see the progress made in simple GUI OSX...! (Sorry I still use.. Mountain Lion works very well!)

  Another way to work around the problem...

  The old gen3, you can easily remove the CT disk... get a USB to Sata (HDD holder or external cable and power) adapter. And plug the USB into the computer... It's really the same thing as above but you don't have to buy another USB key if you do not.

  Yet another way to work around the problem...

  There is another way... a secret path... (think Gollum and the col de Minas Morgul, Cirith Ungol) I'm Arachne... who has lived for centuries in the Hollows of secret... Talking to me directly... my email is opened in the profile. You must give me remote access and I can help you. Maybe it's the last access of type resort to Mordor. (You can guess my last reading list).

• Can't see hidden files to delete in the folder C:\Documents and Settings\William\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files

  C:\Documents and Settings\William\Local Settings\Temporary Internet Files folder there are more than 135,000 files; nearly 2,000 cases and close to 3 GB of data. These files do not display and I can't remove them by deleting temporary Internet files. When I try to see the files to help to locate hidden files, only three very small files appear. How can I delete these files? Can I delete the folder and create a new one?

  William

  You can also enter your options Internet Explorer (via Control Panel), on the general tab, in the browsing history, there should be a settings button, once there, you should be able to select Show files in the temporary Internet files section.  Who will open the file for you and you can do CTRL + A (select all), and then delete.

  Some of the files in the folder may be used, and if they are in use, you will not be able to remove them.  You will need to know what is their use, cannot be used, then delete them.

  Original title: activate the hidden files and folders. -Registry problem! Windows 7

  I had a meeting with a virus, which had a game with my registry so that I cannot view hidden files and folders. Whenever I click on "View files and folders hodden" and then click on folder options, it is by default to "do not show hidden folders and files". I've been browsing around, find people who give advice and I have seen some changes, but it STILL keep diverting back to do not show.

  There are a few default values and checked in 2 subfolders in the shadow folder.

  Most other items in the view tab have check boxes or replacements to choose.
  This is not the case.

  I want to see everything.
  What gives?

  P.S. On a side note - I was looking for initially c:\programdata (directory). That's how all this started. I FOUND IT, is told in passing. HOWEVER - IT DOES NOT EVEN APPEAR ON THE PROMPT BACK - OMG.

  Just thought I would add that :)

  Hi JoeNed,

  I see that you have some problems with the display tab in windows Explorer. I'll help you with this problem.

  1. What is the brand and model of the computer?

  2. what security software is installed on the computer?

  3. have you made changes on the computer recently?

  Method 1.

  Start the computer in safe mode and check if that helps.

  Advanced startup options (including safe mode): http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows7/Advanced-startup-options-including-safe-mode

  Method 2.

  Run a full scan of the computer with the Microsoft Safety Scanner to make sure that the computer is virus-free.

  Microsoft safety scanner: http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/en-us/default.aspx

  Warning of Security Scanner: there could be a loss of data while performing an analysis using the Microsoft safety scanner to eliminate viruses as appropriate.

  Method 3.

  I suggest that you can exercise SFC scan and check if that helps. The SFC/SCANNOW command analyzes all protected system files and replaces incorrect versions with appropriate Microsoft versions.

  For more information how to make SFC / scan, please follow this link: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/929833

  Method 4.

  You can try to restore the computer to a date earlier and check.

  Important: System Restore will return all system files not as documents, email, music, etc., to a previous state. These files of types are completely affected by the restoration of the system. If it was your intention with this tool to recover a deleted file to non-system, try using a file instead of system restore recovery program.

  Method 5.

  I would like to create a new user account and check if that helps.

  Create a user account: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-IN/windows7/Create-a-user-account

• Hidden files in 64-bit Windows 8

  Hi all I am under Windows 8 Pro 64 bit and it was a Windows 7 Ultimate 64-bit upgrade.

  My problem is that I can't activate 'Hidden files' via the Ribbon or the menu folder options. It is not tick the box when I click it. Ive also noticed that don't "do not show and display" have not not a tick against or the other in the folder options.

  Ive checked my permission on the registry key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\
  Advanced\ and I have all the permissions in the registry. When I change the value of 'Hidden' from 0 to 1 I get an error message ' cannot modify hidden: error writing to the new content value.

  I don't know what else to try and hope that someone else may have an idea with this problem. For that interest them the most recent thing ive done with my pc was to install BitDefender Internet Security 2013. I disabled all services for Bitdefender and it did not a difference I thought there may be a possibility that this was causing my question.

  Everything else works fine on my OS, I can just activate the hidden folder option.

  SOLVED

  I tried to create another profile and had nothing but questions, a lot of updates keep the Explorer and whatnot. Long story short, I've tried a few fixes and ended up killing Windows. Fortunately for me I an Acronis backup and managed to restore to that.

  All faults indicate a virus or malware that caused the problem he sky exploded from there. All about everything I didn't not lose a lot and am happy that I have had the backup.

  My guess is the period I uninstall and install my new AV, that I was quite alto of internet surfing at this time. I guess we will never know.

  Thanks to all who responded. Very appreciated

• Mystery - hidden files Blog

  Asked me to update Web site from a new customer, which includes his blog. I connected via ftp and downloaded the entire site. I find that once I get in the blog folder, there are hidden files that are not accessible, nor on my side or side server. This happens with Dreamweaver and GoLive. I then downloaded passed to see if it would work. Initially, he worked to where I could see the files. Then after I have paid for and recorded the show, these files have become too well hidden and preferences seem to be missing the show hidden files option.

  I have studied hidden files and checked all my settings, but so far no progress.

  No one knows about it, and if so, is there something I can do to access? Preference using Dreamweaver CS3, CS4 DW or same GoLive CS2.

  Thank you!

  Linda

  Mac OS 10.4.11

  Oh, hidden but available. As in too many files to display in a list of files

  (Panel of DW files), but still accessible by the browser/OS? This is done

  his vaguely familiar. I think that the solution I've heard of for as many

  files was to create several folders for them. Based on the alphabet, that day, or

  other means.

  I heard that on a certain system, too many files in a folder can slow down

  things a substantial improvement. I could not tell you what is "too much", however.

  I have my old laptop computer hard drive connected to my new. I want to import my favorites but can not find the file because it is hidden. When I try to access the file options and click on 'See the hidden files', apply, then OK, the folder appdata still does not show. When I return to the folder options, the button "View hidden files" is unchecked. I tried to make hidden files visible on the new laptop & the old drive hard but can't seem to understand.

  Also, when I enter E:\Users\username\AppData\Roaming\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles (change user & the drive letter), result is found.

• How can I remove a Thunderbird. zip created recuvva file?

  My Dell computer is older than 10 years and is ready to be recycled. I used Thunderbird since 2011 and the question is a matter of concern for an exceptional program otherwise.

  The program recover file RECUVVA created a file of all Thunderbird messages called Thunderbird.ZIP deleted. I tried several software to remove the file (AVG, GUM, Glary) and none will delete the file Thunderbird.ZIP.

  The file has migrated from the Dell computer to other computers and external drives.  I loaded a copy of Thunderbird.ZIP file on a small USB drive and the only way to delete this file was to overwrite the USB drive and then reformat it.  I really do not want to reformat several hard drives to remove the Thunderbird.ZIP file.
  

  If you really need to delete a file, use this free utility
  http://LockHunter.com/
  Then, there are a lot of programs that will be "shred" the file so it cannot be retrieved. Wise 360 is a free utility from shredding

• Re: Qosmio G - hidden files and folders is not displayed

  Hi people, I have a few hidden files and folders, which I was able to access the front and I used to click on the "organize tab" display, advanced settings, display the files and folders to hide or show hidden files.

  Unfortunately, there seems to be a problem, I just can't access my hidden files and folders, even when I go through this method.
  someone help me please as soon as possible...

  Thank you

  Hi aaz911,

  First of all, it would be nice of you if you post information on your laptop model and the operating system. This must be done always to get a detailed response.

  In any case, I never heard of this problem, but make sure that all files will be displayed:
  Start Windows Explorer > tools > Folder Options > view and enable the following options:
  -Files and folders hidden: display the hidden files and folders
  -Hide protected operating system files (this should be disabled > unbranded).

  In addition you will find these missing files by using Windows search?

  If this isn't the case, I suppose the files are deleted from someone or due to a virus. :(

• Folder options - view the hidden files and folders

  Hello

  On this same laptop, there seems to be a problem with * Folder Options - Show hidden files and Folders.*

  Every time I have to 'see' this option to display - then I go back to check/confirm the changes - but the box is new 'unchecked '. Despite clicking on apply then Ok to save the changes. The changes are never saved...

  I have used other laptops of this same option and it worked fine.

  Please indicate if I need to apply or change other settings for this to work?

  Kind regards.

  A reasonable explanation from Microsoft for this?
  To be honest I have never heard talk about something like that. ?:|

  Since when you noticed this behavior?
  Have you tried to roll back the BONES to the bygone era? Maybe some update is responsible for this.

  I really hope that someone here will explain why this happen.
