Inaccessible Folders No Longer Exist

This is the second time I've installed Vista Home Premium.
The first time there were these folders that I was unable to access that had
a small arrow next to the folder. I was told these point to the actual
folder
and were there to assist older programs to find the new folders in Vista (I
believe).
Now in this second install these inaccessible folders no longer exist even
though
I have Show Hidden Files and Folders selected.
I'm not complaining, just curious why there not there now.

Thanks,.
James
