    Hiding Junction Folders

    Is there a way to specifically hide only those annoying "Access is Denied" junction "folders" in the explorer directory without blocking all the other important, useful or deleterious hidden files that I would actually want to know are on my system?

    The only way that I'm aware of is to turn off the display of hidden files and folders, but that turns off the display for all of them, not just a specific set.

    You should consider doing that, bearing in fmind that hidden system files are hidden for a reason - and that is to protect them of accidental deletion, which could result in system instability or failure.

    So the answer is "no" then. And as I stated in the OP I have no desire to have important or necessary or damaging files and folder hidden on my computer. Nor am I inept enough to delete something without knowing what it is.
