Are you an administrator?
If you do not have access rights to a folder it will show as 0 bytes.
So, if you alter the permissions on it in your favour then you should get it back.
Unless, of course, its knacked!

boot into Safe Mode
go to the folder
backup one level
right click on the folder
click security tab
on permissions, add your name and click Check Names, followed by Add
click apply
and finish up

Your account may be an administrator but you still do not have full access permissions, you might want to try using the hidden administrator account that cannot be removed and is default on all Windows OS's. First you will want to make sure the account is on to do so, go to the start menu and click run. Type CMD and in command prompt type:
net user administrator active:yes
(note: even though the account is active is will not be shown in the User Account Control Panel) if you have not set a password for the account and want to then get back into command prompt if you have left it and type:
net user administrator password here
(note: be sure there are NO spaces in your password, there should only be 3 total spaces in this command line)
after activating the administrator account, log off of your user, and at the welcome screen press CTRL+ALT+DELETE twice, you will then get a login in screen that requires you to type your username and password, in the username box type Administrator and in the password box type the password you set it as. Now after logging into the undeleteable hidden master admin account, try to access the file. if this fails you may contact my company, me or my support staff using the following contact information. i am a computer expert, and technology specialist.
