-Ultima- Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 I *think* you need to set Desktop.ini to have the Hidden and System attributes, and you need to set the folder to have System attribute as well. This can be done using attrib from the DOS prompt. [ WinINet.au3 | Array.au3 (Optimized) | _UnixTimeParse() ] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tAKTelapis Posted October 18, 2007 Share Posted October 18, 2007 If it is the attributes thing: Start > Run > cmd.exe Then navigate to the folder containing desktop.ini attrib +s +h desktop.ini And it should change the attributes for you. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
