my computer or elements seem to be different from yours. I did not find Folder Options under tools. I finally did a "search for Folder Options ", it appeared and I checked "show hidden files...."
"Windows Explorer" brings me the "Documents" files. In "Internet Explorer" I was able to assure that I have administrator control and could effect ...sorry I am not sure exact title now, but childproof/minor controls....something along those lines where I can protect underage from whatever.
I have no clue what NTFS is or how to check for it.
I certainly appreciate your specific step directions. Hope with your continuing help I'll handle these final curative steps.

To show hidden files in explorer:

To change permissions in vista:
Please tell me if you get a security option under properties for the given folder you wish to modify.



And I need it verified that you're trying to modify this account from a DIFFERENT account. You will NOT be able to do this from the same account.

I have Now set up new account/user with Administrator rights. I have taken a photo of each of the frames that I get so you can see what I see..... Please advise where to post them, if it is okay to send the photos to you

I don't need to see photos.
Under the new account see if you can delete that folder.

the error message says:
"WINDOWS EXPLORER is not responding.
If you restart or close the program, you might lose
information.
> Restart the program
> Close the program
> Wait for the program to respond"

I cannot identify what triggers this response. Is it Internet Explorer 7?
When I go to Windows Explorer, I get my list of documents.

First, I think you probably need to start a new thread for this because this thread concerned XP and not Vista.

Second, it's take three to four repetitions of the same instruction to get you to follow it. This is frustrating for me because I'm just trying to help you... so please don't become part of the problem. Read back in the thread, see if you can follow those instructions, and then tell me where you had a problem.


You're starting to sound like you need someone to do it for you... which is why they have tech support.
