    Lock Icon, and some misc., Please


    Hello,

    Have three questions, please.
    They may be related; not sure.

    a. How do I "Show Hidden Folders" ?

    b. My Username is Bob
    I have a Lock Icon on Folder (Bob), which I got to via C:\Users\Bob

    How do I remove this Lock icon and make the "Bob" Folder freely accessible ?

    c. I used the normal Windows Search to find a Folder called SDRSFM
    It is supposed to be via C:\Users\Bob\AppData\Local\SDRSFM
    The search turned up nothing.

    Is it perhaps due to the Lock Icon on "Bob" ?

    But if I do a search with Agent Ransack, it (SDRSFM) shows up.
    Why doesn't the normal Windows Search find it ?

    Thanks,
    Bob

    For the padlock, see here: How do I remove padlock icon from all my files?. Read the entire thread.

    For search, see here: Windows Search - Configure and Use
