Explorer in Windows 2000, like in Windows NT, hides system files.
However, Windows 2000 Explorer actually also hides certain folders.
In order to view all files and folders, in Windows Explorer of Windows 2000
and higher do the following:
-
Click Tools / Folder Options...
-
In Folder Options, tab View
-
Select radio button: Show hidden files and folders
-
Uncheck: Hide protected operating system files (recommended)
Caution:
Unchecking that last option will make hidden operating system files visible and
therefore
more easily accessible.
Tampering with those files and folders may result in system failure.!
Windows 2000 also hides certain system components.
See Adding / Removing Windows 2000 Components for more information on this.
