| Guest | Re: Cannot access system folders in explorer (document and settings) The Documents and Settings folder has been replaced by the Users folder. Many folders have been renamed/moved in Windows Vista. What you see with the ghosted icon and shortcut symbol is not a folder, but a mechanism that exists to allow certain types of programs to continue to work with the new file structure. They are not accessible. -- - JB Microsoft MVP - Windows Shell/User Windows Vista Support Faq http://www.jimmah.com/vista/ |
