Users directory not present in C Drive

DesktopSupport · 24-May-2007, 09:42 AM #1

when I open C Drive of my vista machine I am not able to see the folder "Users" but when go to Start -> Run -> c:\User(press Enter) it opens up the Path [c:\users]

Kindly help me out with this

Perhaps the folder has been given a "hidden" attribute. To check either right click on the folder and select Properties -- or go to Tools > Folder Options > View and check "show hidden files and folders".

I don't know what it could be then unless there is some 3rd party software "hiding" the folder.

Does your "user name" directory show up in the lefthand folder tree?

Are all the permissions for your User Name (Administrators) the same as folders in your personal directory?

Does the same issue appear in a Safe Mode boot?
