• Certain files and folders are not detected by Windows Explorer (XP).

  I created 15 files in a folder on a shared network drive, associated with another computer. My computer is running XP x 64 v. 2003 SP2, and the computer server (the one with the shared drive) has v.2002 XP Pro (32-bit) SP3.  When I open the folder in Windows Explorer I see only 12 folders. When I tried to rename one of the 12 visible files to match the name of one of the 3 missing files I get an error (file exists!). What is all too weird, when I select all and delete 12 deleted records and previously missing 3 appears.

  Has also had a similar problem with entire folders. The Explorer does not see the folder but when I create a shortcut by typing the path of the folder manually and click on the shortcut, the name of the file appears in Solution Explorer!

  All files and folders are visible when I connect on the 32-bit computer. There is no difference between the files/folders regarding the permissions or security settings are concerned. Other users have experienced the similar problem. I tested this on 2 other computers on the same network. On a 32-bit computer, everything works fine, but on another 64-bit computer, I get the same question of file disappears.  It seems to suggest some incompatibility between Windows XP 32-bit and 64-bit XP systems.  Any suggestions how to fix it? It's really frustruting...

  The files appear when you refresh the Explorer window by pressing F5 (or view-> Refresh)?

• To access the files and folders from the hard drive Windows 7 on Windows XP, access denied error message.

  Original title: portable destroyed - need for car access

  I don't know if this is the right forum - please advice if it is not.

  My friend's laptop computer was destroyed in a car accident. I pulled the drive and placed it in my desktop XP system and the drive appear in good health. However, I received permission issues trying to access records on the disk and thought that it was because of me using Win XP and the laptop was Win7x64. My questions below are based on the assumption that I'm not able to access these files on my Win XP system. If this assumption is incorrect, so please let me know.

  I have a laptop that I don't use and put the disk in it. I was hoping it would be plug and play all the new material, but after reading a little online, I know that this is not the best thing to do and will probably not work as did the earlier versions of Windows.

  In the end, I care retrieves the contents of the disc, although it would be great if I could lend my laptop for a few weeks with "its files" until it sorts how to replace the laptop.

  Can I get the player Win7x64 working on the laptop computer of replacement by reinstalling Win7x64 on this laptop? I'm not "means a clean install/reformat, but have rather the Setup program detects an existing installation, and do its magic to get the operating system runs on new hardware?"

  I know that this raises questions of MS licenses. If the installation process could get his old system running on the laptop replacement, if I have a small window of time completely to access his files before being forced to re-register the OS? I'm hoping so.

  I'm looking for only a short-term solution - I do not recommend that he hopes that drive long term because the laptop got quite truncated of the accident, and once he gets a new laptop it will have everything he needs on this subject (OS, licenses, etc.). If I have a small window of time where I can simply copy their important files, or to lend him my laptop with its player and him can bring to its domestic network and the print out of all the things that are important, that it's going to be all together to move them to a new laptop when it is available.

  Thank you

  Hi Jffry10

  What are the files or folders you have a problem to access to the.

  I understand your frustration at not being able to access each file or folder on the system.

  If you have an earlier version of Windows like XP, there are many changes to the structure of the file system.

  Windows now contains some newer components such as junctions, symlinksand other NTFS system files that can cause major problems if they are handled, such as changing the permissions.

  These files and folders have the permissions defined on access denied / all design.

• Access denied on a "documents and settings" folder in windows 7 with administrator rights

  I get access denied on the ' c: \documents and settings "in windows 7 with administrator rights.  The icon shows a small lock on the (very cute) folder. Permissions indicate full control to the folder. I can only access the contents of the folder by adding it to the library folder. The computer is fairly recent and is very near of the original factory. Unlike my precious computers I left it mostly original except for the odd new program. I never really noticed when it pops up as I was getting used to format windows 7 and thought that it must be "the new way" to 7 " The disk has been partitioned by Asus, which significantly added to the confusion. Now I think that it why documents and settings would be in the same folder anyway?  What is a level administrator uber folder? Any ideas greatly appreciated.

  "Documents and Settings" are not a folder - it's a junction Point.

  It is there to allow legacy applications using the latest Windows 7 folder structure.

  There is nothing in what you can use.

  See here for more information about Junction Points:

  Hi Angela,.

  Welcome to the Microsoft community forum. Let me help you with your concern.

  The security settings for the my document and other folders in the library will have complete control and the tick mark you are talking about will be by default on all Windows 7 computers. Some folders inside of it will be in read-only by default. You can remove by box to uncheck Read-only in the properties of the folder.

• Process Explorer error BES when you try to browse the files and folders; and Internet Explore AppHangB1 when you try to attach files to download in Windows 7.

  Hi everyone, auggy,

  I really hope you can help me with a problem I have on a single workstation at my office.  It is an accumulation of 32-bit Windows 7 running MS Office 2010 Standard.  It differs from other generations in our office because it is used by the head of the team of our accounts, and so it has a number of custom pieces of software that she only needs access (payroll software, etc.).

  All the basic features of the computers seem to be well, except the two following, and I would really like to help get to the bottom of it.

  (1) process explorer error when you try to browse the files and folders of BES.

  I can start windows Explorer, and it will happen again--it's a repetitive event.

  (2) Internet Explorer AppHangB1 when you try to attach files to download

  I think that these two errors may actually be related, like IE (and Chrome as well by the way, this be why I think that the two issues are related) works fine, until I just any type of site where I need to download a file.  This happened in the light, as our Chief of accounts needs to download a flat file in a room online banking software.  What's going to happen (and, again, this can be repeated as needed) is: -.

  (a) you need to click on which will generally be a "Browse" button

  (b) a traditional dialog box opens, but instead which allows you to navigate to the location and select the folder you want, he immediately greys out as if the process explore is falling.

  auggi, when I got back on my colleague's PC, I thought I would test to see if the feature didn't always before considering saving data dumps etc, and it worked fine!

  I left it overnight with instructions for the lady who uses the PC to test this morning and see if it's all workers, and it is still, it seems that the fix does not immediately solve the problem of browser, but there later - maybe after a second reboot or something... very strange!

  In all case, this matter can now be considered closed, so all that remains for me to say thank you very much for your help, you are amazing :)

  Hello

  Make sure that the mapped drive is configured to share and works on part.

  Auto-mappage will not work if there is a problem with sharing.

  Maybe this can help.

  Make sure that the software firewall on each computer allows free local traffic. If you use 3rd party Firewall on, Vista/XP Firewall Native should be disabled, and the active firewall has adjusted to your network numbers IP on what is sometimes called the Zone of confidence (see part 3 firewall instructions

  Please note that some 3rd party software firewall continue to block the same aspects it traffic Local, they are turned Off (disabled). If possible, configure the firewall correctly or completely uninstall to allow a clean flow of local network traffic.

  I got my sisters computer and changed the name of user (jb-administrater) account, but when most of the programs have access to my files and folders that they are still called jenifer documents, how can I change this?

  Hello

  ·         Where have you changed the name of profile?

  This is normal in windows, and unfortunately, we would not be able to change.

  When you rename a user you just change the user account, not the files and folders associated with the user. Let's say you have USERA. USERA has also a C:\USERS\USERA folder that is associated with the user account. When you rename the user account to USERB, USERB has an C:\USERS\USERA folder that is associated with USERB

  Step 1: I suggest that you create a new user account and check to see if it helps:
